Come join us for our brand new programme of creative workshops for home educators this autumn, held fortnightly on Mondays from 1.00pm - 3.00pm! While we pilot these workshops we very much appreciate your feedback to get them just right for our local home ed families.

In this workshop, we will look at a variety of poems and use them as inspiration for your own writing. No previous experience necessary and no pressure, just engaging exercises that will get your words flowing!

Recommended for ages 9yrs +
