HERE’S WHAT WE’RE DOING THIS TERM
TRIAL A CLASS ages 4+ Key stage 1
Beginner in STAGE 1
Experience the magic of a Mini Monets Art Class!
Come and experience your child’s first proper art class with Mini Monets from the age of 4 1/2 …Subject to a successful trial class we will offer a place to your child. Parents may wish to stay with their children and join in with them until they become settled and able to separate. Here they will learn to manipulate materials such as clay, mix paints and create beautiful artwork to take home every week. The children LOVE being in this gorgeous nurturing safe environment. There will also be an additional helper in the class so each child has enough attention and support. Some need more than others and we welcome neuro-diverse students.
TRIAL A CLASS ages 7+ Key stage 2
Intermediate in STAGE 2
Experience the magic of a Mini Monets Art Class!
Come and experience a more advanced art class with Mini Monets from the age of 7… After Stage 1, we are pleased to offer your child a place in our older group. Here, students will explore more advanced art techniques, from detailed drawing to sculpting, while working on both individual and group projects. The nurturing environment promotes creativity, confidence, and independence. In this class, students are encouraged to work more independently, supported by expert teachers. In this class, we also aim to provide support, having additional support staff, with a focus on meeting the needs of all students, including those who are neuro-diverse.
ADVANCED COURSE 10 - 16 year olds
TEENAGE STUDIO STAGE 3
Saturday 3.30 - 5.45 in Chalfont St Giles Reading Room
Studio Monets is a weekly club specifically for artists aged 10 and older. This class is suitable to support an art Scholarship application and an opportunity to prepare work for the portfolio. This is a space beyond school and different in ethos. Here we are all about enjoying the freedom creativity provides whilst exploring the potential of processes and materials that might not have been encountered before. We emphasize conceptual framework which helps the maturing mind to understand in a deeper way their creative impulses.

Testimonials
What our clients are saying…
My daughter has been attending the Mini Monet weekly art classes for two years and she absolutely adores them. They create some incredible work and cover really interesting topics and study artists in detail. The classes are professionally run and the Mini Monets team is friendly and very encouraging to the children. Mini Monets have also been such a memorable part of our lockdown time this year, there was such an effort made to make sure the lessons happened whether on-site or on Zoom. My daughter calls the classes her “happy place” and is inspired each week to deliver a great piece of art.
My son has been attending Mini Monets weekend art classes and holiday clubs for the last 3/4 years and looks forward to it as a highlight of his week. Debra and Deborah are fantastic artists and mentors and the children never cease to amaze me at how they rise to and revel in the weekly challenges that are set. I feel truly lucky to have discovered Mini Monets and for my son to be able to be part of the community of young artists that it nurtures!
