Our note

There is one teacher and no assistant, so a child who needs one to one support has to bring their own helper, and sometimes that is a condition of joining. Ring the education coordinator first if that applies to any of your children.

What the children do

A five week after school art class for children aged 6 to 8, taught by Jennifer O'Brien. Children work with clay, watercolours, acrylics, pastels and mixed media across the series. Tuesdays 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm, 15 September to 13 October 2026. The class is run by one teacher on their own, and a child who needs one to one support is welcome to bring a responsible helper. The fee covers one child for the whole series.

Sit at tables and make things with their hands. Over the weeks they shape clay, paint with watercolours and acrylics, draw with pastels and build mixed media pieces, taking each project in their own direction.

Good to know

Nothing is published about washrooms, lunch space, parking or step free access at the classroom. Children bring their own water bottle and a nut free snack.

Sources disagree. Their own class pages give two different postal codes for the same building on Oyster Bay Drive. The street number and town match on both, so either will get you there. The second one is also the postal code on their mailing box, so use the first if you are sending anything to the building.
