Our Schools Out Holiday Club is always seeking fun and unusual activities for the children to participate in. Our holiday programme can be found under the events page of this website. This October the children were invited to visit Glasgow's Willow Tea Room. This is the only city-centre, Charles Rennie Mackintosh designed building that is currently open to the public. it was a good opportunity for children to see his design work first hand, and to make a toy/game to take away with them at the end of the session.
This visit included a tour of the building, including rooms usually off limits to the public. The children enjoyed the opportunity to ask questions, dress up and participate in fun games. Another highlight was to make and play with a historic toy that was popular in the days of Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Kate Cranston. The children made a marble maze.
