Dear parent/guardian,
As part of our Enrichment programme we are now running a range of different activities after school. These activities may be something educational, social or cultural to enhance the extracurricular opportunities available to our students.
Origami is the Japanese art of paper folding. Apart from being a great tool in developing spatial reasoning and geometric understanding, origami also teaches patience and concentration. It is also therapeutic and creates a sense of achievement.
On Tuesday 5th June we are running an Origami Workshop where students will have the chance to create beautiful sculptures under the instruction of an Origami Specialist – Mikoto Hines, who has been in TGS recently working with the Art Department.
Students will need to meet at 3.15pm in Room 317 and the workshop is due to finish by 4.30pm. Please indicate on the form below how your child will be making their way home.
The cost for this workshop is £3, which includes all the resources needed to create their own sculptures. Places are limited to 12 so these will be allocated on a first come first serve basis. If you wish to secure your place please complete the reply slip below, along with a payment of £3 to Student Services.
Yours sincerely,
J Hilson
Head of Chamberlain House
