Summer plans 2021: Dear parents, we are extremely proud of all kids and mentors who diligently took part in our online sessions over the past 12+ months. We will run two more sessions in June - Saturday 12th and Saturday 26th June. We will then take a break from classes for July and August 2021. Classes will resume in early September, whether online, in-person or blended, time will tell. Thank you all for your support.
Fingers and toes crossed for in-person sessions and some normality soon. Thanks for all you guys do
Thank you🤞
