I mentioned a little while ago about our plans to run craft workshops for children in Algiers, now with funding in place I am so excited to be able to announce the first two dates – 22nd and 29th March which coincides with school holiday time in Algeria. Little Stars language Centre in Baba Hassen has generously allowed us to use their premises for these sessions but, we plan to hold them all over and wherever we can to reach as wide a section of the community as possible…if you have any suggestions or would like us to hold one where you are please let me know.
So, the session will be a fun -filled two hours of cutting, painting and gluing! During the workshop, each child will get to make a variety of puppets including Spoon, Shadow and Mask. Children will be encouraged to make up stories using their puppets and play them out in our specially made puppet theatre.
The workshop will develop creativity and imagination and build confidence through self-expression. Instruction is in English so it will also be an opportunity for those learning the language to develop vocabulary and practice speaking skills. Knowledge of English is not a prerequisite though-ALL children are very welcome.
The workshop will be led by a U.K. qualified teacher who is a native English speaker .
These sessions are suitable for children aged 5-11 years and are completely free of charge. Places are limited so it is essential to book a space for your child(ren) as soon as possible to avoid disappointment(details on the flyer)
If you would like to download and share the flyer (and it would be great if you did!)please use the links below.
If you are in Algiers I would LOVE for you to book spaces -I promise, your children will have so much crafty fun…and it is always nice to meet our supporters!
