  3. Have high level communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to work collaboratively with parents, staff, and external professionals.
  4. Have current First Aid qualifications and Anaphylaxis Certificate or be willing to obtain these prior to commencement.
  5. Be able to show a commitment to the values and ethos of Christian education.
  6. Be willing to get involved in all aspects of the College's programs and opportunities.
