SUMMARY:Creative Explorers - October Half Term
DESCRIPTION:An artist led holiday club for 5-11 year olds who love to make\, share and play. We will collaborate on engaging individual and group craft projects with a focus on nature\, the world around us and free play to encourage creativity\, language and expression within the arts. \nThis informal holiday workshop will be fun and light\, providing your child with the chance to express themselves artistically while making new friends and learning new skills. \nWe will take a tour of the galleries\, explore the works on display and (weather dependent) we will take a nature walk outside\, so please supply a coat if you are happy for your child to join. \nPlease note:\n• On sunny days we like to get outside! If you are not happy for your child to leave the building then please let us know on the morning of the session.\n• We may get messy! Please send your child in old clothes that you don’t mind them making and playing in\, as we do occasionally use materials that may be harder to wash out.\n• Please pack your child a drinks bottle\, so that they can help themselves through the day. Feel free to pack them a snack as well – exploring can be hungry work!\n• Children should bring a bag to help them carry home all their crafts and keep them safe through the day. \nAll children will now need a packed lunch\, there is no longer the option to add it to your ticket booking. Please note nuts are not permitted in packed lunches due to allergies. \n‘Arty’ lunch boxes will be available to purchase from the café on the day if you wish. \nTo ensure the best experience for all children and to support the needs of the group\, the minimum age for this activity has been changed to 5 years and over. Children attending must be fully toilet trained. \nThank you for your understanding and cooperation. \nPlease note this is a drop-off session.\nThe cost includes all materials. \nBook Now
