Creative Kids Holiday Program
Wednesday Janaury 24, 9:30 am – 12.30pm
$45+ BF per child LIMITED SPACES! BOOK HERE
Come for a creative morning of weaving and painting with Hannah Rother-Gelder. Ages 5 – 12 years old.
Children will begin to learn the process of weaving on a card loom and wool. They will be able to participate in the class and then take home their own loom and weaving instructions to continue at home!
The painting will be a fun, collaborative session where children will respond to music and create both large scale and individual smaller painted works, exploring the ‘felt experience’ using a range of senses to paint.
In between the activities a small snack will be provided and a short movement activity to break up the morning.
Prior to the program an enrolment form will be emailed to you requesting emergency contact details, participants details and any other requirements of the venue.
