After School art classes

Complimenting the core curriculum for learning, The Creative Collaborative work with Schools to provide an after school art class, offering children the opportunity to express themselves and their creativity in a fun, relaxed and safe environment.

 

Our ART classes are artist-led weekly one-hour sessions following the School calendar, during which we will  study various art and creative techniques where children can experiment with mark-making, texture & colour- gaining a good understanding of application using a variety of materials- from acrylic paints/watercolour /collage/ chalks/ inks etc.

 

Our projects are usually 4 - 6wks long, we study the work of a famous artist as our inspiration for our art piece such as a painting on canvas, pastel study or sculpture At the end of the project each child will get to take their artwork home!

Research indicates that art experiences can impact positively on confidence, self-esteem, personal, social, emotional development and behavioural health. 

Key stage 1 & 2 (5 – 11 yrs) - 1 hour a week per term - Class size: 10 - 25 children

Creative sessions

The Creative Collaborative supports teachers to build lessons aligned with the required curriculum for art and design. With our professional knowledge as trained and working artists we can provide innovative ideas and structure, combining varied techniques into one lesson. (Drawing, painting, textiles, sculpture, print, photography etc) 

Where time and resources are limited for the school, The Creative Collaborative becomes an invaluable partner.

Teacher training/ consultation

As experienced art professionals our course leaders understand the challenges teachers face daily in inspiring young people and meeting the curriculum guidelines. We recognise that every teacher and school is different. The Creative Collaborative is committed to finding solutions tailored to your students- delivering training programs unique to the needs of your school.

"art has the role in education of helping children become like themselves instead of more like everyone else."

The presence of an artist brings a cultural and creative vibrancy to learning- revealing a deeper understanding of a child’s needs, interests and identity through creative self expression- raising the standard of achievement and fulfillment for both teachers and students.
