After SCHOOL November-March

Art & Craft activities are entertaining and at the same time beneficial to children in many ways. It helps

them with decision making abilities, improves concentration, boosts their self-confidence, increases

their problem-solving abilities, and improves their overall academic performance. This class is designed

to help children build their confidence through creativity and observational skills. Children will craft

projects using a variety of art making techniques and mediums. They will be introduced to works by

great artists from around the world to enrich their knowledge on art history. They will be encouraged to

enjoy the creative process, placing more importance on the act of creating than the final result.
