Teacher Vacancies

Ponatahi Christian School is currently seeking teachers for 1) new entrant to Year 1 classes, beginning July 2012, and 2) Secondary English, also starting July 2012. Whether or not this suits you, we are always interested in hearing from prospective teachers who identify with the Special Character of the school, and who have a passion for building up the Kingdom of God rather than using one's talents in a non-Christian environment where one is hindered from teaching the truth.

Any prospective teacher, from anywhere in the world, who can identify with the School’s Special Character as being reflective of their own personal beliefs, who is a member in good standing in a conservative Reformed, Presbyterian, or Strict Baptist, or similar church, and who would like to consider teaching at this school is welcome to email the principal peter.bertram@watchdog.net.nz even if a position is not currently open. Non New Zealand teachers need to follow registration procedures with the NZ Teacher’s Council http://www.teacherscouncil.govt.nz/ May the Lord lead both of us in a clear way. Who knows what the Lord may do in proving us a potential teacher, and providing yourself with a stepping stone in this rewarding career. It has often been the Lord’s way to provide for us a solution before the problem or vacancy became apparent. May all honour be to Him alone.

We are also interested in student teachers who identify with the School’s Special Character.We have successfully hosted several student teachers over the years from both New Zealand and overseas. Most overseas Teachers’ Colleges allow an international internship as part of their programme in the final year of training. A letter of reference from a church elder or Pastor is required.

Greetings
P Bertram
Principal
