IncredibleFoam® is like no other dough you have used!

Tiny colourful styrofoam beads are combined with a non-toxic adhesive to create fun textures and shapes that can even float in water. Tested with local children, this is sensory play at its best.

This activity is suitable for children 3–5 years old.

Artists' Toolbox Term 2 2024

Do you know a young person who loves to make art? Artists' Toolbox is a seven-week after-school course that runs each term on Wednesdays.

Designed for 8-12 year olds, the lessons cover the ‘how to’ skills that every young artist can use to develop their artwork. Students will draw, paint, print and sculpt their way through a series of activities that will teach them the artists' tools such as tone, depth, space and colour. Perfect for the young artist who is keen to sharpen their skills. Each term is a slightly different programme and all materials are provided.
