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. Focusing on urban mining – the process of reusing waste materials from the built urban environment – we reimagined ready-made materials to create and construct sustainable sculptures, transforming materials, giving them new life and value and connecting us to place.

Activities Included: Five-minute assemblage sculptures (small) using readymade objects; imagining & creating tools that could extract valuable materials from landfill; collective assemblage sculpture (large) exploring our venue, gathering objects and transforming their function through placement, orientation and juxtaposition; tying, binding and other connection techniques; imaginative world/scenario-play in environments built using found materials.

Supporting Children with Additional Needs
We welcome children with additional needs, whether diagnosed or undiagnosed. It is essential that you contact us in advance to discuss your child’s needs so we can ensure a safe, productive, and creative experience for everyone, given our staffing capacity. If we are not informed beforehand, we may be unable to accommodate your child on the day. We may also recommend starting with a trial half-day to help your child settle in comfortably.
