Home school Creative Hub

We provide hands on opportunities to learn and make art for all ages. Ranging from small group activities for younger kids, to help with tuition, making work and completing projects for older students.

Programs are tailor to suit individual interests and our activities are designed to keep you engaged, and build knowledge through doing and making. All our activities are hands on, unhurried and will nurture your creative spirit.

Creating art, taking photos, and making stuff is lots of fun and that is our focus, but all our activities are designed to do more than just entertain. Behind them you’ll find well planned and considered outcomes that will help you develop your creative skills over the long term.

We fit the real time, live Creative Kids requirement that comes into action this year: “From 1 January 2022, the Creative Kids program is refocusing on encouraging real-time (live) activities. Art kit programs, pre-recorded video lessons and online programs that are not delivered in real-time are no longer eligible”
