It's raining.....

Here in the EWAV Works household we've been cooking alot of exhilarating new dishes which has kept us incredibly busy and also changing the landscape of our organisation and taking us into different territories.

- We have teamed up with 'THE' Arsenal Football Club to launch our new programme The Football Animation Initiative, this project would offer young people in and out of the criminal justice system, not in education or training and all other young children looking for something creative and different. On this programme the young people would gain first hand unique football training from Arsenal Football Club coaches (Not Arsene Wenger  think the Gunners need him more :-), as well as learning Animation skills from our talented award winning Animation team. Those who would love to get up the creative media ladder can also work towards getting a Diploma in MEDIA from educational awards body OCR.

- A few months back 'THE INVISIBLE PATH' was conceived - Our mentoring scheme aims are to - Raise attainment,  Build character, self respect and responsibility. These exciting projects would be opened by Meg Hillier the Member of Parliament for Hackney South and Shoreditch in October 2010.

EWAV Works - SUMMER ANIMATION CLUB

Summer has come and gone. What a great summer we had this year 2010? The sun was a scorcher but we loved every sun ray of it.

We at EWAV works have had a busy summer, with almost 200 kids coming through our summer animation doors at one point we were overwhelmed with the dramatic FURTHER interest. However, we were able to satisfy the numerous requests from busy parents wanting to keep their children occupied during the six week break. Running every day of each week we trained young kids lots of animation techniques.

The highlight has to be Michael Jackson's Thriller animation, the kids did a remarkable zombie project which blew the Animators and of course families, friends, and parents away.

Lola Atkins, EWAV Works, Project Director said - Our holiday courses offer parents an ideal way to not only keep the kids occupied throughout the holidays but also encourage children to learn new exciting and creative skills. The courses that we run during the summer are always popular as they are a bit different from the norm and we’re confident that this year will be no different. We pride ourselves on offering a service which is second to none and the great results that we are achieving are down to the talented team Animators we employ.” And true to Lola's words they were extremely popular.

EWAV Works Summer Animation club was successfully delivered to almost 200 kids from ages 6 to 14 years in East London area, we had 4 screenings which were showcased to friends and families. Every feedback we got from both parents and children was overwhelmingly positive.

Just a few TESTIMONIALS:

I just wanted to thank EWAV Works for the Summer Animation club.
My son Chico attended the course on the 3rd week and had a brilliant time.
He's only 6 years old, so we were amazed by how much he learnt in a week, and how well the teachers managed to connect with the children.
Many thanks again.
