About – The Art Bee Club
Our world has changed and our health, wellbeing and time has never felt more precious.
❤️ In the Art Bee Club there is no right or wrong.
We remove the pressure to be perfect. Children will explore colour, texture and pattern while learning and experimenting with pencil, pen, paint, pastel and mixed media.
🎓 Both myself (Emily) and Emma are qualified teachers with many years experience in primary education and we are fully insured, DBS Enhanced checked, safeguarding trained and Daisy Platinum+ First Aid Paediatric Level 3 Certified.
I founded The Art Bee after my daughter arrived and the switch to part time class teacher seemed to be full time hours! I knew I could serve everyone better by focusing on art and The Art Bee was born.
The Art Bee Club quickly became the most popular service I offered and I am blown away by all the amazing feedback from parents and the creativity of the children!
Emma then joined from working as a class teacher while her son was young and it was a perfect match bringing Emma’s wealth of expertise in Design Technology to compliment mine in Art, expanding the variety of projects, techniques and skills we can offer the children.
Our goal is for children to enjoy being hands on with art and craft. To be confident expressing themselves through art, broadening their creative thinking… all while having fun!
If you wish to enquire about a club or find out how we can help you with our other services, or just to ask me anything at all, please follow the link to the contact form which will message me directly, I will reply as soon as I can via email.
Thank you
Emily

More than one young Artist?
JPlease fill in the registration once for each of your Art Bees. Thank you
What if the Club is full?
In the event that the club is full we will put you on the reserve list and email you back to confirm this.
We will let you know asap if a space becomes available, on fcfs basis.
How long do clubs run for?
Clubs run half termly. So about 5, 6 or 7 sessions per club depending on the length of the term and your schools other commitments.
Clubs start after school and end at 4:30pm.
Adult picking up & Late collections?
The adult contact details in the form will serve as contact info for us to use in event of emergency or late pickup.
Please also use the message box to add any extra info for when other people may be collecting your Art Bee from the club, or just email or message Emily if the pickup person changes, prior to the club starting.
Late Collections
As per the terms and conditions (on the booking form page) you agree to pay any late collection fees to The Art Bee as charged. We hope to avoid this… If we incur additional costs from our own childcare arrangements due to your late collection then we will pass this cost onto you.
Emily and Emma are both mums who also needs to dash away after running each club to collect their own children ~ so she knows what it is like from both sides.
We get it – a once in a while occasion we will hope not to not charge. But repeated late collections will incur a fee.
Rebooking the following term?
No need. If you have a place then that place is yours until you no longer need it. Just please do let us know if you no longer need it so we can offer the place to our reserve lists – Thank you.
How do I Cancel my place, I no longer need it?
To tell us you no longer need your place please use the contact form, or emailing Emily… or just chat to us at pickup. We will be very sad to see you go 😢
…but it will mean another young Art Bee can be offered the place… So thank you for letting us know 🙏
Please note that as of January 2023 we will be moving to a model of giving one half terms notice.
What should my child wear to the club?
We initially used to request The Art Bees attend the club with a loose baggy old t-shirt to wear. However this naturally declined as it became one of those extra things a parent needed to remember.
You are welcome to pack your child with an old loose fitting t-shirt if you wish, or an apron if they have one…
We haven’t really ever made enough money to purchase aprons or t-shirts but I would love one day to be able to provide Art Bee Aprons and it was another idea which covid put a hold on.
So watch this space…
