Newington College seeks an inspirational educator to join our Science Department as we educate the next generation of scientific thinkers who are ready and willing to engage in and contribute to the fascinating world around them.

Our Science Centre has thirteen laboratories catering for Science classes from Years 7 to 12, including three large specialist super-labs. All Science lessons are conducted in laboratories, allowing for considerable flexibility in teaching programs, scientific practice, and learning. Practical work in all courses is complemented by the ample provision of both commonplace and specialised Science equipment.
