Statistics GCSE, 1pm - 1:45pm, £6pw
In these sessions children are working through the Statistics GCSE syllabus with a view to completing the course in time for a summer 2025 exam sitting. Please note that children will need to purchase a text book. Parents will also be fully responsible for entering their child for the exam. Katie can give guidance on what level to enter them for and whether they are likely to be exam ready for a particular sitting.
Drama, 1:45pm - 3pm £5pw
In these sessions we will be rehearsing for a play that we are performing on the evening of 21st May. The play is written but we are happy to add in extra children. There are 5 sessions of the drama class plus the show evening included in the price for this session.
Art, 3:15pm - 4:15pm (2 - 3 on 23rd May), £5pw
For art this term we are splitting in to two groups. Please book by choosing the group your child would like to mostly be in. There may be times, for example when one group is finishing a project, when we move children about for an odd session. Also if it becomes apparent that a child isn’t in the appropriate group we reserve the right to swap them over, and will let you know if this is the case.
1) Art with Lisa, looking in depth at different techniques and medium to create detailed pieces of art - great for older children who want to improve their art skills and perhaps prepare for further art study.
2) Art with Katie, working on a different project or with a different medium each week, sometimes looking at different artists and taking inspiration from various sources. Great for those who want to create projects using inspiration and their imagination.
Lunch
There is time for lunch 12:15pm - 1pm. We will keep the workshop room free for this. Please ask your children to tidy all their lunch things away and pick up any dropped food etc.
General info
Children are welcome to stay between sessions and play in our rooms - we have a wide selection of games and toys, or of course they are welcome to bring their own activities. You are usually welcome to leave children with us during their lessons so long as you remain contactable - we will ask you to come in or to stay if your child needs you, or you are welcome to stay onsite with your child. We do ask that you are on site with your child between lessons and take responsibility for ensuring that your child gets to their lessons, (unless by prior agreement). We have a very busy day with lots of families taking part so the teachers and shop staff are not able to take responsibility for other children. We also ask that you ensure your child clears up after themselves before they leave.
For new families we have a guidance and expectations sheet that we will ask you and your child to agree to when you first join us.
