Smilers for ages 8-18 on a Saturday morning, every 2 weeks. This week with a drum workshop with Matt Evans.
The session is now longer to allow families to stay for a cuppa and a chat. A team member will be there providing refreshments, and please feel free to bring a packed lunch.
You can book onto the session here.
These sessions encourage children to explore their imagination and use their bodies through play and movement. Accessible to all – we use props, craft, music and singing to promote a creative environment full of fun.
Here is what the session will look like this week:
- 11.15 – 11.45 – A movement based warm up led by the young people.
- 11.45 – 12.45 – Drumming workshop with Matt Evans music.
- 12.45 – 1.15 – Snacks/picnic lunch and refreshments, space for parents and children/young people to chat or play together.
