“Athena’s Summer Teen Club was such a hit that we decided to open a companion club for the younger crowd – as being younger doesn’t mean being any less important. We’ll have some fun times reading and discussing books, watching movies and sharing what’s on our minds!”

Description

All kids between ages 8 and 12 come and join our Summer Kids Club where we will read books, watch movies, share our creative work, and hang out together.

We’ll choose two books and two movies to discuss each month. During the week in the classroom, kids will share their art, Lego or any other projects they are working on this summer, and discuss books and film.

Once a week we will meet for a live webinar to discuss what we’ve done during the week and create things together.
