This hands-on workshop is also suitable for interested children attending without adults and does not assume any prior knowledge. However due to the nature of the workshop, an ability to follow the presenter’s instructions is required. If your child is disruptive, you will be asked to come and collect them for everybody’s safety. Children will need to be at Hive by the designated start time. Adults are welcome to stay with their children or to leave them, but we ask that they are picked up promptly at the end of the workshop.
