Easter Holiday Courses at The Conservatoire
We’ve got some great stuff for secondary school aged children, including;
- An Introduction to Illustration (9-14 yrs) for any budding artists, a course on how to Make Your Own Boardgame (8-14 yrs) and Improve Your Smartphone Photography- Instantly! (14-18 yrs) because, well, if we can't tear them away from their phones we might as well teach them how to use them properly.
- A few very exciting drama workshops, looking at Puppetry, Smart Phone Filmmaking, and welcoming back Les Miserables stars Adam and Connor for Making A Musical (all 8-14 yrs)
- There's even a couple of courses for the grown-ups too!
You can see full details on our website.
