February Half-Term: Light and Shade

Short-Courses for Children Aged 6 – 11
Warwick Preparatory School, Banbury Road, Warwick, CV34 6PL

Supported By

The children took the lead on creating a final exhibition to share with their parents and carers on the last day; a great opportunity to consolidate learning and articulate the stories behind the artworks and what they had created.

Light and Shade was our February half-term 2025 children’s sculpture course. Altering an area of the space using projection, we played, we problem solved and got creative using found objects, coloured acetate and mirrors which become enlarged environments and created an immersive installation of light, sound and sculpture in the space.

Activities Included: Using coloured acetate and objects with an overhead projector; large scale drawing around projected images; using materials to make a sculpture based on what you see; making shadow sticks using wooden dowels and chosen materials; performing in the space created.

“The three days Caitlin, Frankie and Eli attended the course were absolutely amazing! I can’t even describe how happy the kids were and how much they thoroughly enjoyed every day! They are so excited to attend the next one. I am so pleased I came across Pangaea!” – Michelle Avery, parent

Adventures in Material & Space is a programme of short-courses for Children taking place at Warwick Prep on a regular basis during the holidays. Every short-course is different with new activities, materials and process introduced each time. Open to all.

A number of free and half-price places were available to those on low income, thanks to support by Friends of the Arts Warwickshire. If the cost stops you signing your child up to a future course, drop us an email summarising your personal circumstance and let’s see if we can help.

We are happy to accept children with additional needs but it is essential that you get in touch with the details in advance so we can ensure a safe, productive and creative experience for all, given our staffing capacity.
