Teacher (Middle Primary Teacher)

Position Details

St Patrick's Primary School has been the been the heart of Catholic education in Fremantle for over 100 years. Originally, The Sisters of St Joseph opened a school for young women and children. The Sisters ran the school until the 1960s when they unfortunately didn't have the numbers and the school was handed to the parish and became St Patrick's Primary School. Since then, it has been the faith based primary school connected by a strong community. Our supportive staff and lower class sizes help to cater for the spiritual, social and academic growth of our students.

Based in the Fremantle, classes are able to make the most of local attractions for excursions and we are building relationships with local organisations to provide additional opportunities for the students.
