Our Afterschool Art Programme is the perfect way for artists aged 10 - 14 years to wind down, explore their imagination, and build creative confidence.

Each week, they'll dive into a new hands-on activity - from clay work and painting to drawing, 3D sculpture, fabric art, and printmaking.

Designed specifically for tweens, the programme encourages self-expression while developing fine motor skills, creative thinking, and a love for making art.

Whether your child is already passionate about art or just wants to try something new, they’ll have a great time experimenting with different materials, learning new techniques, and proudly bringing home their unique creations.

No experience is needed - our programme is designed to suit all levels of creativity, with projects adapted to support and challenge each child at their own pace.

Spaces are limited - Enrol now and let their imagination take the lead!

Please note that OSCAR subsidy forms will need to be sent to us prior to the holiday programme starting, to ensure they can be processed.

Free Trials (available for after school and homeschool classes only)

You can book a free trial class for our term time after school and homeschool classes. Please note that booking a free trial does not guarantee a spot in the class. If you are certain you want to attend for the term, please book and pay for your child before the class fills up.

Belongings

TLC takes no responsibility for any loss or damage to children’s property while in our Kids’ Art Programmes.

Cancellation Policy

All classes need a minimum number to go ahead. Please note: Parents/Caregivers must give 24 hours notice if their child will not be attending booked sessions. Failure to do this will mean the full fee for days booked will still be charged. If a class is cancelled, we will let you know as soon as possible prior to the scheduled start date. If this happens, you may transfer to another available class, or you will be offered a credit, or a refund.
