School Holiday Speciality Classes
Join in the creative fun at Banjos Bead House. A wide variety of bead and craft projects are available. We keep our class sizes small to focus our attention on each individual child.
Class costs include all materials used in the class. In our classes we encourage children to think about colour, design and pattern. We work with each child to assess and build their skills such as: counting; measurement; estimation; visual memory and repetition; and hand-eye co-ordination – all while having fun and creating unique pieces that they will enjoy wearing or using.
Please ensure you arrive at the class commencement time as classes will start and finish at the times indicated. Parents are welcome to stay or to leave children with us for the class and arrive back in time for the class conclusion.
Our project range is constantly expanding as we endeavour to meet children's individual skill level and interest. Please refer to photos below of recently completed projects and children enjoying our classes.
Bookings are now being taken for School Holiday Classes during January 2024.
