Our Children's creative holiday programme has been operating for more than 30 years, and we focus on developing visual arts and performing arts skills for 5 - 13 year olds, together with a lot of group work and collaboration.
We seek people who are responsible, mature and can demonstrate that they are able to work appropriately with children. In particular we seek candidates with abilities and interests in the creative visual arts, craft, storytelling and drama at introductory level at least.
This is a fantastic opportunity to gain some skills and experience working with children over a short time frame of two weeks, to fit in with your schedule. Applications are due by March 27, at the latest, so get in touch so you don't miuss out!
