We offer several creative groups aimed at developing creativity, imagination, fine motor skills, and mindfulness, including calligraphy, papercraft, crochet, and a chess club.
These clubs enable children to mix with peers from across the International/Danish departments, learn new skills, and work together on projects each term, supported by our creative & inspiring tutors. The craft classes are great for encouraging mindfulness and a space away from digital distractions!
program for the crochet class
Karin will set out to instruct children in crochet skills. This semester she will teach Granny Squares, a technique where a square piece of fabric is created by working in rounds from the centre outwards. They can be joined together to create large items like blankets, clothing or in this instance a zipped pouch/bag.
This class is suitable for continuing crochet students and also welcomes beginners
