Nimble Arts are looking for an inspirational creative writing workshop leader to join us for our half-term holiday ghost story writing day for 4 - 11 year olds at Heber School in East Dulwich, South East London on Wednesday 29th October from 9.30am - 4.00pm.

The idea of the day is for children to produce their own short story book/picture book (with one or more stories) through a series of revolving writing, illustration and design workshops. You will deliver your one-hour workshop four times across the day to children grouped into age ranges. The workshop for the youngest children (4 and 5) will be 45 minutes long and should focus mainly on writing simple sentences to be illustrated. For older children, workshops should help children to produce a piece of narrative prose centred around a Halloween theme.

We would be very interested to hear from any creative writing workshops leaders who:

• have a current DBS check (no more than 3 years old)
• have over 3 years experience working with children and young people
• regularly deliver creative writing workshops

If you are interested in applying for the position please send the following:

• your latest CV
• a scanned copy of your latest CRB/DBS check or your DBS number

And in the main body of an email:

* a proposal for a one-hour creative writing workshop for 6-10 year olds
• a proposal for a 45-minute creative writing workshop for 4-5 year olds
• contacts for two referees

The fee for the work is £150.00

Please use the subject line WEDNESDAY WRITER'S ROOM in your email and send to recruitment@nimblearts.co.uk no later than 9.00am on Monday 29th September.
