Once a month the Creative Education team run a Creative Education Week when schools are invited to bring a group of children to the Playhouse for a half-day session of themed creative activities.
Activities are linked to the National Curriculum and each week is preceded by an INSET workshop to support teachers’ work with their children.
Sessions are carefully designed to move children steadily through a series of activities, each with tangible outcomes, ensuring that every child can engage in his or her own way.
Previous sessions have included Making and Using Puppets (Early Years
KS1 and special) Dancing Stories(KS2) Creative Citizens (KS2) and Playing
with Creative Drama (Nursery and Foundation Stage)
