It’s shown me so much more than I knew was out there.

The Saturday Club is so beneficial. My daughter gets to experience and learn about so many different mediums of art. It provides her with a huge sense of achievement, accomplishment and helps to build her confidence. She also gets to make new friends with children from different schools.
