Nature School
Team Members

The role

• Support tamariki in a child-led environment, encouraging curiosity, independence and respect for self, others and nature.
• Plan and lead engaging Discovery Basics sessions and specialist afternoon workshops, drawing on your own skills and interests.
• Confidently lead morning and afternoon hui, including karakia, waiata and group discussions.
• Take initiative, make sound decisions and give clear direction when a situation calls for leadership.
• Actively supervise children in varied outdoor environments, using good judgement to support their safety and wellbeing.
• Record meaningful observations of children’s learning and experiences for our daily parent updates.
• Take photos and videos, and help to create social media content that shares our days while respecting each child’s privacy preferences.
• Work collaboratively with the team to keep each session running smoothly, bringing confidence, initiative and a calm, capable presence to the group.

There may also be opportunities to drive our nature school van. This includes transporting children, communicating with families, and collecting, cleaning, refuelling and returning the vehicle.
