Weekend Snacktivities Classes
Snacktivities classes are structured so that children of all abilities are able to participate. Each hour long class is led by an individual trained in that particular discipline. The small group and high ratio of staff to children give children of all abilities the chance to receive the individual attention they deserve and need to succeed.
