Crafternoons 2025

Posted on February 10, 2025

We are thrilled to announce that Crafternoons are starting again! We hope this letter finds you excited and ready to unleash your creativity.

Crafternoons is a group designed for students between years 7-12 who are interested in having fun while building valuable life skills through craft activities. Our goal is to provide a space where you can engage in various crafts while developing essential skills that will benefit you in your personal and academic life.

We will be meeting twice a term, and each session will focus on a different craft that relates to a specific skill. Whether it is improving your social capacity, building resilience, managing your time, developing conversation skills, or working on teamwork, we have carefully selected crafts that will help you grow and develop as an individual.

Crafternoons will start back up on Tuesday 18th February 2025 (T1, Week 4). You can join onsite in Boardroom North from 2:30pm-3:30pm. Please see below for a specific timetable and event schedule.
