Join our Artcycle craft recyclers and unleash creativity, have fun and learn new skills.

Week 2
Mixed Metals: Clean and ready to emboss UBA (Used Beverage Cans)
Week 3
Soft Plastics: Cleaned and repurposed crisp packets into a popper case
Week 4
Hard Plastics: Plastic bottle craft; flower, Botfish puppet or a windmill

Sessions begin at 3:15 PM until 4:15 PM. Please call Wicor Primary School 01329 237412 or Artcycle (Claire) 07788577468 if there are changes to collection of your child. Please supply an emergency contact for your child, otherwise we will use the phone number from your booking.
To help us keep children safe, please note the following arrangements for collection after the Artcycle workshop:
Authorised Collectors: Children will only be released to parents, those with legal parental responsibility, or adults who have been pre-authorised by you. Schools will not allow children to leave with an unknown adult unless prior parental consent has been given.
Independent Travel: Older children (usually Year 5 and above) may only walk home independently where written parental consent has been provided.
Changes to Collection Arrangements: If someone else needs to collect your child, please inform the school office in advance. A password system or other security checks may be used to confirm verbal consent.
Late Collection: If you are delayed, please contact the school as soon as possible. Your child will be supervised by school staff or the after-school club. Repeated unexplained late collections may lead to further action in line with school safeguarding procedures.
Custody Arrangements: Schools must follow any formal legal orders, such as Child Arrangements Orders. Without a court order, schools must follow the rights of adults with legal parental responsibility.
Thank you for helping us ensure a safe and smooth collection process. Claire
