At the end of each Kids Art Club term, it’s always amazing to look back and see just how much the children have created. From bold experiments with colour to imaginative sculptures and collaborative projects, their creativity seems to grow with every session. Yet, it’s never only about the finished pieces—, it’s about the process, the friendships, the curiosity, the laughter and the blossoming confidence. Here’s a glimpse at some of the highlights from this term’s journey of making!
