We offer small, thematic classes for different ages that encourage enjoyment and freedom of expression. We believe in collaboration in a friendly non-competitive space that will enable each student to embark on a journey of creativity, discovery and choice.
Using a diverse range of visual stimuli our young artists are inspired to experiment with exciting art techniques and media to develop visual skills, artistic ability and confidence through their creative projects.

Our after-school art sessions offer a time and a space in which our younger artists can slow down, step away from their busy week and enjoy an hour of calm and mindful creativity.
With a maximum ratio of five children to every adult, The Art Room teachers spend time with each student guiding them through their projects, discussing their ideas and nurturing the development of their visual and artistic skills with individual tips and techniques.
Each week we explore a variety of themes, materials, tools and techniques through exciting art activities. We put enjoyment at the centre of our sessions and with a diverse programme devised to offer an element of individual choice, each child can explore their potential for self-expression whilst indulging their creative curiosity.
As much a social space as a place to create, The Art Room offers the opportunity for children to share ideas, reflect and collaborate.

Our Afterschool 2 classes are open to ‘tweens’ including those in school years 7 and 8. Our high adult to child ratio allows us to be flexible with our sessions and ensures we can tailor activities to different ages each week. There are many benefits from working in mixed age sessions and we believe we can all learn from each other regardless of age.
Prices and term dates for our Afterschool 2 classes are listed above in the drop-down tab.
In 2025-6, we would like to open up an additional class exclusively for children in school years 6, 7 and 8. If you would like further information about our plans or to register your interest please contact us for more information here.
“ Emma enjoyed the class so much! She really was delighted with the work she produced and was teaching me at the weekend how to draw bubbles! The words she used to describe the class were very relaxing! ”
