Craft Halloween decorations at half term in Lewisham Shopping Centre

Lewisham Shopping Centre is bringing spooky cheer to families with free Halloween craft workshops during the October half term. Running on Wednesday 30th and Thursday 31st October, these drop-in sessions promise to keep kids entertained from 10:30am to 4:30pm.

Children of all ages can join in, and no booking is needed, making it a hassle-free way to get into the Halloween spirit.

Unleash your creativity

The free craft sessions invite families to create eerie potions, quirky gonks, and wicked witches. These hands-on activities give children a chance to make spooky decorations that they can take home to proudly display. Whether it’s a mini cauldron or a haunted house ornament, kids will love showing off their handmade Halloween creations.

Paul Redden, Centre Director, says, “We know keeping kids entertained during the October half term can be a challenge, but our free Halloween craft workshop will do the trick. Families can have fun together, and we’re excited to see all the ‘boo-tiful’ decorations!”
