Each week, children in years 3 - 6 will learn different age-appropriate magic tricks and progress through their sticker booklet, collecting a sticker for each of the 9 tricks in the booklet. They then perform their favourite trick in the book for a "showtime" sticker and collect the magic wand prize. The club is structured, non-competitive, and designed to build confidence through performance. Every term, children receive a fresh sticker booklet and new magic prop, along with a velvet drawstring bag, take-home props, stickers, a holographic sticker, and their own magic wand.

Guitar

Will's lessons are relaxed, friendly and individually tailored to each child to their current level and aspirations for the instrument. 'London College of Music’ (LCME) Acoustic Grades level 1 to 8 will be offered should the child wish to do so, but not forced to do so. Beginner to advanced level lessons in all popular styles such as rock/pop/funk/blues/funk/country. Lessons will be primarily based around ’Tab’ reading and my own ‘colour method’. However, traditional notation reading will be introduced down the line of the lessons period. Pupils will be expected to come to their lessons with their own guitar, plus any music/sheets that I have given out thus far, ideally in a display book folder, for each lesson.
