In this exciting 1–1.5 hour session, kids can turn their favourite building bricks into creative tools—using Lego to design their own printing plates. They’ll then bring their ideas to life by printing bold, colourful patterns onto card and paper, creating artwork that’s completely unique. Every young artist will leave with a collection of their own handmade prints to take home and treasure. All materials and equipment are provided, so they can dive straight into the fun. While it’s not the messiest activity, printing can get a little inky—so we recommend wearing clothes you don’t mind getting creative in. Best to save your favourite outfits for another day! No experience is needed at all—just imagination! This is a relaxed, friendly workshop packed with ideas, encouragement, and hands-on support to help every child create something they’re proud of.

Thursday Short Walk – Tansley

This walk was advertised for June, but due to heatwave conditions on the day we took a shadier route instead. So we will try again, starting at 11.00 am by Tansley church. SK 323 599 off the A615 Matlock – Alfreton road. There is street parking to be had in various spots on the road through the village. We will go through fields and woodland across Knabhall Lane to Allen Lane and Holestone Gate Road. Lunch will be taken near Turningstone Edge before retracing our steps to return via Old Engine Farm, Packhorse Farm, Knabhall and Whitelea Lanes. Distance about five and a half miles with just one short steepish bit as we climb out of Tansley.
