Looking for the summer job of a lifetime? For this position you must like children and be ready for an exciting, fun, eye-opening and amazing summer.
The American word 'Counsellor' is a term that means you will be brother/sister/friend/supervisor all rolled into one to the children attending summer camp!! You will act as a role model to these children and will be with them everyday throughout the nine weeks, so you will need lots of energy and be open to new ideas.
General Counsellors do not specialise in any particular area and are primarily responsible for the overall activity programme and care of a small group of children. You are therefore required to have extensive childcare experience.
Your role will be to accompany groups of boys and girls from activity to activity but be prepared to participate! If the children see you taking part in the pottery lesson, or see you learning how to negotiate a high ropes course, then they will want to participate too. Remember you are their role model for the summer and they will want to be like you when they grow up!!
