POST DETAILS

Title:
Summer Camp Leader
Description:
This summer we will be running 2 types of camps. Art camps and STEAM camps. We are looking for enthusiastic individuals to join our teams of leaders nationwide.

STEAM CAMP LEADERS
Bring the wonders of Science, Design & Technology to primary kids by delivering fun, interactive summer camps with Designer Minds! This role involves travelling to various venues, bringing equipment such as LEGO, art and science materials and robots and guiding primary children through a range of fun activities from STEAM: Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Maths. You will be provided with the lesson plans, training and equipment.

ART CAMP LEADERS
Bring the joy of art and design to primary kids by delivering hands-on, interactive camps with Designer Minds. This role involves travelling to various venues, bring art, design and tech equipment and guiding children through a range of interactive art activities; painting, drawing, upcycling and sculpting as well as some digital art skills such as creative coding, animation and graphic design. You will be provided with the lesson plans, training and equipment.

Travelling is essential as Designer Minds events do not take place in a fixed location. This job involves travelling to a different venue each week for summer camps. It is important that you have your own car so that you may transport the materials required for the children's activities. Designer Minds leaders work in groups of 2-3.

Most camps are scheduled from 9am-1pm, Monday to Friday, with afternoon camps on some weeks also, from 2-6pm.

This is a fantastic experience for teachers, special needs assistants, early childhood experts and professionals with a background in the STEAM subjects or ARTISTS / ART TEACHERS. It is an opportunity to develop skills in a vibrant and forward-thinking educational environment. Pay rate is dependent on position and experience. A travelling allowance will also be provided.
