Art and Design
Art is a fantastic subject with many art school trips providing an opportunity to expose children to experiences and explore hands on in a new environment outside of the classroom. Through interactive exhibits, workshops and hands-on play, children have the ability to take ownership of their own learning and development and explore their own curiosities. This unique exposure provides the foundation for creativity, critical thinking, and connection to the environment around them. In the UK we have an amazing amount of varied art museums, art galleries and art exhibitions.
