Kia ora Art Lab whānau
I will be taking a break over the Christmas / January holidays as well as Term 1, next year. So I won’t be offering art classes until the autumn holidays (end of Term 1, 2024). This will enable me to do a tidy of the studio, resources and refresh the curriculum to keep me and the children inspired. I have been developing my home as an art teaching studio since returning to New Zealand 5 years ago, and I really do need to down-size all the art resources I’ve been accumulating!

Week 2 – Garden Art Lab

Exciting news… We will be making art from the garden!
Three days of exploring the garden, finding out how seeds and soil make magic together, what lives in the dark under the ground, and what flourishes above. Then, creating nature arts and crafts with Helen & Amy!
Sarah’s garden has multiple areas to explore. For example, there are many types of flowers, fruits and vegetables growing, and there’s even a lizard garden and worm farm.
Sarah Hutchison also provides organic gardening workshops for adults in her wonderous spring garden and approached Helen to share her garden with the Art Lab holiday programme. There is a sheltered deck to do the artwork on. Learning support will be provided by Helen, Sarah and Amy.
