Activities Include: Den/shelter building; wrapping of objects hung in the space; bamboo constructions; outdoor installations using fabric, tube, rails and foam; covering objects.

Three-day course 10 am – 4 pm = £135
Option for additional wraparound care at additional charge 9 – 10 am and 4 – 5 pm @ £7.50 per hour.
A number of free and half-price places are available to those on low income, thanks to support by Friends of the Arts Warwickshire. If the cost is stopping you signing your child up 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. However it is essential that if your child has additional needs you get in touch with us to discuss the details of these in advance. This is to ensure a safe, productive and creative experience for all, given our staffing capacity. Failure to do this may mean we are unable to accept your child on the day.

“It was so fun, you were free to do or make whatever you wanted. You could make dens, you could make a bridge, you could make a marble run, you could make play dough. You arrive and there is just loads of materials to build and play with and the staff encourage and support you in whatever you do.” – Freddy, age 11

Children will need to bring: a packed lunch, snacks, water bottle and clothes they can get messy in. Strictly no nuts please. (Well in the food, in the children it is actively encouraged!)
