Add Yourself to the Equation
Are you fluent in algebra, passionate about pi, and capable of surviving Year 9 logic puzzles without breaking a sweat? Trinity Catholic College is on the hunt for a Temporary Full-Time Mathematics Teacher to join our team from October to December 2025.
We’re looking for someone who:
Knows their way around a calculator (and can still teach long division without one)
Can turn “I’ll never use this in real life” into “Whoa, that’s actually cool”

At Trinity Catholic College, we’re serious about learning—but we also know that laughter multiplies engagement. If you’re ready to bring energy, clarity, and a touch of mathematical mischief to the classroom, we’d love to hear from you.
