About this course
Afterschool Art Class (Wednesday 4:30 - 5:30pm, Ages 6–10)
Our Wednesday Afterschool Art Class offers a creative, hands-on way for children to unwind after the school day while exploring a wide range of art materials, techniques, and themes. Each term features fun and engaging projects inspired by a variety of artists and styles, helping young learners to develop both skill and confidence in their artistic abilities.
Children will experiment with both 2D and 3D processes, using materials such as watercolours, inks, pastels, oil pastels, clay, papier mâché, and more. Projects are thoughtfully designed to be age-appropriate, supporting growth in drawing, painting, sculpting, and mixed media techniques.
Each session starts with a short, creative warm-up designed to build essential visual skills such as fine motor control, spatial awareness, and visual memory. These activities also introduce children to new tools, materials, and artistic concepts like tone, colour theory, and composition in a relaxed, enjoyable way.
This class is perfect for children who love art and want to express themselves through imaginative, skill-building activities in a supportive and friendly environment.

💡 Why book the full term?
Booking the full term ensures your child enjoys consistent, structured learning that builds week by week—ideal for nurturing their skills and confidence. Full-term students will also complete a mini portfolio to take home and celebrate their progress at the end of term.
Drop-in sessions are a great taster, but they can’t match the creative journey that comes from committing to a full term of learning and exploration.
