Công việc cụ thể là gì?
Position Overview
The Atelierista holds a distinctive place within the Aurora learning community — this is not simply a traditional Visual Arts teaching position. Aurora International School of the Arts, a Reggio Emilia–inspired international school guided by the New Zealand Curriculum, is seeking an artist and creative practitioner who sees creative expression as a language of thinking and who embraces the concept of the Hundred Languages of Children.
Working alongside children and teachers as a co-researcher, collaborator, provocateur and creative practitioner, the Atelierista facilitates art and creative expression explorations for children across Primary and Middle School, encouraging experimentation with a variety of materials. Through encounters with materials, techniques, environments and artistic processes, the Atelierista helps children investigate ideas, represent theories, revisit their thinking and discover new possibilities — developing artistic skills, problem-solving abilities and critical thinking through open-ended projects.
Key Responsibilities
Atelier & Creative Practice: Design and facilitate rich encounters with materials, media and artistic processes. Introduce children to diverse artistic techniques, practices, artists and forms of expression. Encourage experimentation, imagination, risk-taking and creative problem-solving. Maintain the atelier as an inspiring, organised and evolving learning environment, exploring sustainable, natural, recycled and unconventional materials.
Collaboration & Inquiry: Collaborate with teachers to integrate art into their planning and identify opportunities for artistic exploration within classroom inquiries. Co-design provocations emerging from children’s questions and interests. In partnership with the Pedagogista and Coordinators, meet with classroom educators to plan, implement and support long-term, intentional research and project work. Contribute an artistic perspective to curriculum development, support interdisciplinary projects, help teachers recognise the Hundred Languages within everyday learning, and facilitate workshops and professional development that build teachers’ confidence with materials and creative languages.
Documentation & Making Learning Visible: Observe and document children’s creative processes, conversations, theories and discoveries. Use photographs, videos, children’s words, artefacts, sketches and written reflections to make thinking visible. Work with teachers and children to revisit documentation and extend inquiry. Utilise documentation as a tool for reflection, assessment, and communication with parents and the wider community. Contribute to exhibitions and displays that communicate the story and process of learning, rather than simply displaying finished artwork.
Environments & Materials: Collaborate with teachers and staff to design aesthetically pleasing, inspiring art spaces, including thriving mini-atelier spaces in each classroom. Source and select open-ended materials, maintain a well-stocked and accessible inventory of art supplies, and research new materials and resources aligned with the Reggio Emilia experience.
Community, Events & Culture: Participate in the planning and organisation of school-wide events, exhibitions and showcases highlighting children’s artwork. Create visually appealing displays and installations for school events, and coordinate art-related experiences and workshops during special occasions and celebrations. Support parent ateliers, contribute to school publications, newsletters and social media, build connections with artists, galleries and the wider creative community, and help strengthen a culture where creativity belongs to everyone.
