Art classes
Classes are now well under way. Don’t forget the ‘Pay per class’ option. You can book and pay for a three hour class for just £20 at Reception. Take the receipt with you for the Tutor. This is a great way of trying out a new class before enrolling for the summer term. It is also a great way to fill in an unexpected gap in your week when golf or tennis is cancelled.
Our five-week summer term dates have changed slightly. Kathy starts on 15th April and Charles on 20th April.
