Artastic aim to develop the artist within the child by creating an exciting, experimental, and colourful environment to convey different art forms. This aids to develop concentration, coordination, perceptual development and self esteem.

Artastic art club has a huge variety of materials and different lessons each week, from looking at still life, 3D landscapes, creating stories and illustrating on aprons, lino and string prints and many more while still looking at different artists.

Materials used through out the term are poster paints, acrylic paints, pencils, oil pastels, chalk pastels, pen and ink, tissue paper, glitter, pipe cleaners, foam and felt shapes and objects, paper shapes, coloured sugar paper, cartridge paper,canvases, water colour paints, lino prints string on card prints, embroidery string, batique paints, ceramic paints, glass paints and charcoal.

When you sign up to a term you receive a portfolio to keep work in and a sketch book

Gosh, you could be talking about my 10 year old! Has he tried Tai Kwon Do? I think there is an afternoon class at Dulwich Baths. We are also fortunate to have a place at Stax Music Centre (via Southwark Council) where he is learning drumming (not sure he would have done it if it was a wind or string instrument).

Sorry I can't suggest anything but if you find a Sat afternoon animation club - let me know!

because its so accessable might he pop down to the velodrome at burbage rd and look at mountain biking or track cycling?if he hasnot been he might like it- perfect age for him.

You could look at Camberwell Choir School - it's not a choir, it's not a school but it is in Camberwell: St Giles Church Hall in St Giles Road. It's a community music project with lots of diffent musical activities, singing, drumming, teaching of other instruments. It's a very friendly place - my eldest went there as a toddler, then in junior school and beyond, and now volunteers there.
