Do I need prior graffiti experience to join the training?

Absolutely! Our Suva art teacher training is designed for all skill levels. Whether you are a fine arts graduate or a primary school teacher who hasn't touched a spray can before, we guide you through the basics. We focus on 'teaching the teacher,' ensuring you gain the confidence to lead your own classroom sessions safely and effectively. We start with simple lines and build up to complex pieces.

Is use of spray paint safe for a school environment?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits for all participants. During the professional development session, we also educate Suva educators on proper ventilation, eco-friendly paint options, and how to set up a safe 'graffiti zone' within a school environment. You will leave the workshop feeling fully prepared to manage a classroom of students with spray cans.

How long does the teacher training session last?

Our sessions in Suva typically last between 2 to 3 hours. This timeframe allows for a deep dive into the history of street art, a comprehensive safety briefing, hands-on practice with various nozzle types (caps), and the creation of a final collaborative masterpiece. We can also customise the duration to fit into your school's professional development (PD) day schedule if required.

Do we have to pay in advance for the workshop?

We believe in total flexibility for Fiji's hardworking teachers. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book your training session. We trust our community and want you to focus on the creative experience. Payment is only settled after the workshop is completed and you are 100% satisfied with the training provided. It is a risk-free way to upgrade your curriculum!

Will I receive any teaching materials or lesson plans?

Yes, definitely. While we cover the grit and soul of street art, we also provide you with structured lesson plans and 'how-to' guides. These resources are designed to help you integrate graffiti into the Fiji national curriculum, covering topics like colour theory, typography, and social commentary. You will have a clear roadmap to follow when you return to your classroom in Suva or beyond.

Where in Suva do the training sessions take place?

We bring the art to you! We can host the professional development session directly on your school grounds in Suva, or we can arrange a local creative space. If you choose to host it at your school, we ensure the area is properly protected and that we leave the space exactly as we found it (except for maybe a stunning new mural on a designated wall!).

What equipment is included in the training package?

We provide everything! Your booking includes premium spray paint in a huge range of colours, various 'caps' for different effects, protective clothing, and canvases or boards to practice on. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little dusty, and bring plenty of energy. We handle the setup and the cleanup so you can focus on learning.
