After school activities

In our workshops, we've witnessed initially reserved children cautiously beginning their projects, only to leave the workshop brimming with pride in both their accomplishments and newfound skills. Energetic kids found a sense of calm while sanding, surprising everyone with their heightened concentration and willingness to engage. Creative minds seized opportunities to translate ideas into reality, often adapting and learning about physical laws along the way.

Even the most confident students showed a touch of humility after realizing the effort behind crafting a masterpiece. Regardless of their initial demeanor, the common thread among these wonderful children is the unmistakable pride and newfound confidence evident on their faces as they exit the workshop. They've not just used proper tools but also discovered muscles and skills they never thought possible.

Why wood wizards?

Sense of competence, confidence, responsibility, respect for self and others, respect for material and safety.

Mathematical thinking (size, shape, volume, measurement, directionality, geometry) engineering skills, creativity and inventiveness.

Eye-Hand coordination, strength and fine motor control.

The smell and feel of wood, the dusty friction of sanding something smooth. 

With the emphasis on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics) in early childhood classrooms, the Wood Workshop provides Preschool and Primary School children a means to become makers, tinkerers and engineers.

Inclusive Workshops

Our workshops are inclusive, we strive to extend our passion for creativity to every child, including those with special needs. We celebrate moments of triumph as each child, with their own pace and approach, unveils their creative potential. Our workshops are not just about crafting projects; they are about cultivating a supportive environment where every child can experience the joy of self-expression, discover newfound abilities, and leave with a sense of accomplishment and confidence, regardless of their unique challenges.
