Celebrating with fun, games
& crazy crafting

Thank you so much — we really appreciate you coming in. The children absolutely loved the session and were so proud of their Botfish creations. Thank you too for the resources — we’re looking forward to using them and building on what you’ve started. We’d love to welcome you back in the future and will certainly pass your details on to the junior school. Thanks again for such a lovely experience.

From waste bin to a classroom aquarium

Since 2024 we have been promoting stewardship through single-stream workshops and environmental events. More recently, Artcycle teamed with Wicor Primary School in Portchester to reach children, by helping them understand the potential of waste materials, through the creation of a Botfish puppet. Giving hope and joy through reuse.
