At the Children’s Centre for Creativity, we find creative ways to be sustainable while providing a safe space for learning. We believe:
1) Consumerism is not needed to be creative.We don’t need ready-made toys to engage with and learn from.
2) Discarded items can be given a second lifeThere are many ways to creatively repurpose waste.
