Creative Arts Workshops for Adults
if you are involved in Childcare, and Play Settings in Devon!!
Your group or organisation can book Magic Carpet and one or more of their specialised workers to deliver training to your staff team. We will design a creative training workshop or a series of workshops around your needs. These workshops offer a practical introduction to a range of activities that will help your staff develop the confidence to introduce more creativity into their work. Each workshop will have an emphasis on using creativity within the Every Child Matters agenda, and encourage all participants to use creativity in all areas of their work with children. The workshops will generate staff interest and motivation and improve working practice.
Due to funding constraints this work cannot be funded by Devon Children and Young People Services at the moment. This is due to be reviewed in April 2010
