Art Teacher

Avenor College, a dynamic, selective and future thinking school is seeking a Teacher of Art to join our school on the next steps into the future. 

As the school expands, we need to appoint enthusiastic and dynamic professionals to contribute to the teaching of Arts from August 2019. Engagement in the arts provides rich opportunities for personal development. Students, through direct experience in arts processes, are involved in exploring and expressing their emotional and spiritual selves, while learning about their own strengths, weakness, hopes, and fears. The self- knowledge that develops through arts experiences is a key foundation for their future. Arts processes also enable students to develop understanding of others through involvement with art works, both past and present, and through working cooperatively in creative art making. 

Visual art, music and drama are all integral components of Avenor College. Students are encouraged to use various art forms as a means of formulating and expressing ideas, perceptions and feelings. Students will learn to value the contribution of the arts to daily life, cultural identity and diversity. 

Since visual art, music and drama are integral to culture, the Avenor arts program plays an essential role in the development of cross-cultural understandings in our interdependent world. Objectives, relating directly to the broadening students’ awareness and appreciation of the common elements in various cultures, contribute to students understanding of local, regional, national and international cultures.
