OPAL Play TA

We are looking for an enthusiastic, self-motivated person to lead our Play Team at lunchtimes.  Your job is to help the pupils play as hard as they can, to engage with them, to support them and to allow them to love every moment of the lunch hour as well as supporting your Play Team to do the same.  Imagine Disney Princesses playing football, dinosaurs, trains and lego people exploring the garden, mud pies in Forest School, kayaking through the trees, dancing and singing to a wide range of music and arts and crafts with friends.  The role is 11 hours per week to include the school lunch hour and an additional 6 hours across the week and would suit someone who loves the outdoors and spending time with children.  Please share this advert with anyone you feel might be our perfect Play TA!
