Art Club

In our After-School Art Club, children explore creativity through fun, hands-on activities designed for young learners. Each session includes drawing, painting, collage, and crafting, helping children develop fine motor skills, imagination, and confidence. We use a variety of materials to encourage self-expression and experimentation, while also linking activities to themes, seasons, and stories. Most importantly, it’s a space for children to have fun, make friends, and proudly share their artwork!
