Little Picassos – New Magill Location!

Pack your paints and let’s Gogh, Little Picassos has welcomed their fourth studio location at 485 The Parade, Magill!

This new edition will join the Glenelg, Woodcraft and Hyde Park locations across SA.

If your kiddo hasn’t already experienced the messy, vibrant, lively fun of a Little Picassos class, it’s time to get involved. They offer term classes, birthday parties, school holidays, art camp and now adult painting and ceramic classes!

Founder, Janine Boyd, has a Bachelor of Education in Visual Arts with 20 years teaching experience as an art specialist in many South Australian Independent and State Schools. She understands the importance of messy play and believes that engaging children in art is a great emotional release where they can express themselves, reflect on their thoughts, feelings and the world around them. Art is also an opportunity to test out ideas and take risks, because the great thing in art is there is no right or wrong, just differences.

Janine says ‘At Little Picassos we encourage differences, encourage children to share how they perceive something to be. This celebration of the individual child builds self-esteem, and confidence, the self-belief that what they do, see, and feel, is worthwhile and great’.

The School of the Nativity: A small school with big facilities

The year 1982 was one of big thinking and big ideas. Steven Spielberg’s E.T was a worldwide hit in movie theatres, Advance Australia Fair replaced God Save The Queen as our national anthem, blue eyeshadow and shoulder pads were in and the controversial breakfast spread Vegemite, turned 60. So why the nostalgic recap? Well, there was another big thinking idea taking shape in Aberfoyle Park during this time, with the opening of a new schooling set up.

Why stepping outside the classroom matters more than ever in middle school

It happens in a moment. A student halfway up a rock face pauses, frozen by fear and doubt. Below, an instructor calmly encourages: “Take a breath, look around, and take the next step.” The student exhales, refocuses, and reaches the top—exhausted, but transformed. These quiet turning points—part challenge, part breakthrough—are common in outdoor education. And for students in the middle years of schooling, they’re more than just powerful memories. They’re moments of growth.
