Brisbane, Australia Education Full time

**About Us**:
Rochedale State High School is quite close to Brisbane's CBD, until recently it has remained isolated as a semi-rural pocket. Rochedale State High School is now growing quickly. The historical isolation has contributed uniquely to the nurturing and development of a very strong sense of community. This quality is appealing and families are attracted to it.
Performers for every stage expressing talents in every field is the vision that shapes teaching, learning and assessment at our school. This vision for our students is underpinned by our school motto of integrity and achievement, which captures the spirit of our students as they strive for and achieve their individual successes.
At our school each individual is encouraged and supported to learn and grow academically, socially, physically and creatively. Our school consists of students, staff, parents and community who work together and value success, integrity, participation, openness and equality.

**About the Role**:
Responsibilities include, but not limited to;
- Maintain a safe chemical/laboratory waste storage/handling/preparation/disposal system in accordance with departmental guidelines, including labelling, secure storage, calibration and control of equipment and apparatus and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
- Collect off campus scientific materials, science resources and field samples and collect and care for flora and fauna within the science department, in accordance with current handling and prevention of cruelty regulations.
- Prepare chemical solutions of known concentration from bulk supplies including concentrated acids, stains and media and manufacture simple glassware/general equipment for preparation-laboratory and teaching-laboratory use.
- Work independently in a science laboratory, recognising, anticipating and safely managing chemical hazards.
