Empowering Senior Learners
The Transformative Role of Arts and Crafts in Education
At Mzameni Children’s Centre, we’re proud to shine a spotlight on the incredible talents of our senior learners in the drama and arts class. These budding artists, ranging from grades 1 to 9, have not only crafted their own shields but have also unleashed their imaginations to create vibrant works of art.
In our drama and arts program, we recognize the immense value of creative expression for learners with diverse needs, including those with learning disabilities. Engaging in arts and crafts activities offers our senior learners a unique avenue for self-discovery, skill development, and personal growth.
For children in the senior grades, the benefits of learning through arts and crafts are manifold. Beyond honing their artistic skills, these activities foster critical thinking, problem-solving, and fine motor coordination. Through painting, sculpting, and other hands-on experiences, our learners develop confidence in their abilities and gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.
At Mzameni, we believe in celebrating the power of imagination and the joy of artistic expression as integral components of our holistic approach to education. Our drama and arts class provides a supportive environment where senior learners can explore their creativity, express themselves authentically, and cultivate a lifelong appreciation for the arts.
