Got a young storyteller or budding animator at home? They’ll love our fun and creative 4-day Animation Week!

Join us for a fun, hands-on week where young people can bring their ideas to life through animation.

Throughout the week, we’ll be exploring:

🧱 LEGO stop-motion

🤲 Clay animation

📱 Digital animation on iPads

✂️ Paper puppet animation

Each session will build on the last, and at the end of the week, we’ll come together to watch the finished film in a special premiere-style viewing!

Every session kicks off with chill time (games, chats, and getting settled) before diving into the main activity of the day. We also make time to get up, stretch our legs, and enjoy a tasty, healthy meal together.

This camp is for young people aged 11-16 from St Helens who are eligible for benefits-related free school meals.

Limited places are also available for other groups of young people, including those in receipt of a support plan via Early Help, Child in Need or Children We Look After, an Education Health Care Plan (EHCP) or additional hours at school.
