Little SA's Journey
From a passion for the arts to a mission for education.
Who We Are
Little SA, an arts-based initiative by SAtheCollective, nurtures future-ready, socially conscious children through music, movement, storytelling, and visual arts. Our programmes spark curiosity, creativity, and confidence while developing four essential thinking skills: creative, critical, design, and aesthetic thinking. By blending artistic exploration with inquiry-based learning, we help children engage deeply with ideas, experiences, and the world around them.
