CREATIVE COURSES Our creative courses have grown enormously in popularity, mainly due to the expert leadership and innovative course content from our tutors. All of these courses are designed for children and young people to develop existing skills and learn some new ones. As ever, the Cookery and Arts & Crafts courses will produce many masterpieces to take home. All of the courses are open to boys and girls of all abilities aged 8–13 years. We suggest that comfortable, older clothes are worn for these courses as things can sometimes get quite messy.
