Recreation programme

The New Hub has developed an extensive recreation programme. There are a wide range of new activities to try, or further develop your hobbies and skills.

In the lifestyle courses you can choose anything from international cooking to fashion, from make-up, to applying for jobs or starting a business. In the creative arts section courses range from graffiti art to photography. Performing arts courses look set to shine with everything from DJ workshops to hip-hop dance to forming your own band. Or you can get physical with courses like skateboarding skills, yoga, self defence and boxing fitness. Most courses run over three to four weeks, starting from early June. Costs range from $10 – $30.

Copies of the full programme are available from The New Hub in New Street, on their website or look out for the brochure at your school. Collect a brochure and enrol on your chosen course as soon as possible as numbers are limited.
