- Yoga – fun ways to stretch together
- Meditation – mindfulness matters
- PEEP – play through crafts
- Bookbug – discovering the joy in books
And if that wasn’t enough – you get a FREE yoga mat too. Give us a call on 661 9292 to find out more.

Henry Fraser visits Lorna’s Art Class
Dear all,
Theatre Sans Accent | Theatre sur le bout de la langue!
FRENCH DRAMA : Language and Acting class into one fun workshop!
Whether your child is learning French at school, one of the parents is French or simply you want him/her to learn French, join us in this interactive workshop where we will go through the basics of conversational French.
The children will have the chance to test their capacities and learn new words and skills whilst being creative on stage (this class is also suitable if your child is a complete beginner). Drama games and improvisation exercises will be at the core of the class focusing on building up self assurance in the first place, playing around with sounds, developing vocabulary and discovering French culture.
No snails or frogs will be harmed or used during those workshops! Join us now!
Alice Boyle visits the Wednesday Advanced Art Class
Dear all,
Last session we looked again at the work of the Scottish painter Alice Boyle but this week we had the lady herself to answer our questions. She spoke about how she worked and worked with the children as they turned their designs into paintings. She showed us layering colour and how to work with our hands as well as brushes. We all agreed it was much more fun having the actual artist with us, if a little intimidating. The wee artists were a little shy and over awed but deeply impressed!
