This area encompasses the gym, group fitness classes and sports courts.
Activity Instructors
We currently run a range of children’s activities, including:
- dance
- kindy gym
- kindy sports
- coaching sessions in badminton, basketball, gymnastics, and soccer.
We look for instructors who are good with children and have experience in the activity being taught.
It would be helpful to have completed the Community Coaching General Principles course or have accreditation through a sporting association.
All staff working with children must hold a current Working with Children Check.
Group Fitness Instructors
There are a range of classes offered including freestyle, aqua fitness, and Les Mills classes.
Instructors must hold:
- a group fitness qualification
- a current first aid qualification, preferably registered with Fitness Australia.
Some classes (such as Les Mills) require instructors to have completed training in that style and the latest released format.
Gym Instructors
Gym Instructors must hold a Certificate III in Fitness and have a current first aid qualification.
Occasionally we take on students undertaking practicum. To learn more, please email employment@canning.wa.gov.au.
Personal Trainers
Personal Trainers must hold a Certificate IV in Personal Training and have a current first aid qualification.
We prefer trainers who are registered with Fitness Australia and have experience in conducting personal training sessions.
Sports Umpires
We look for people who have a thorough knowledge of the game’s rules and who can handle difficult players and situations. A certification from a sporting association would be an advantage.
