How it works

  1. Initial enquiry: Reach out to us with your school's details and preferred dates. We’ll discuss your educational goals and group size.
  2. Design conceptualisation: We help you choose a theme—perhaps related to Ipoh’s history, your school values, or a specific curriculum topic.
  3. Safe setup: Our team arrives early at your Ipoh campus to lay down protective flooring and set up the professional painting panels.
  4. Briefing & safety: We start with an energetic introduction, explaining the history of street art and demonstrating how to use the equipment safely.
  5. First strokes: Students get hands-on with the cans, learning basic "can control" techniques like making dots, lines, and fades.
  6. Creative execution: Under the guidance of our pros, the kids start filling in the designs, experimenting with vibrant colours and bold shapes.
  7. Adding the details: We teach the secret tricks of the trade, like adding highlights and outlines to make the artwork pop!
  8. Final reveal: Once the paint is dry, we step back for a group photo and a celebration of the students' hard work.
  9. Handover & cleanup: We pack up everything, leaving the site spotless but significantly more colourful than we found it!

Frequently asked questions

Is the spray paint safe for primary school children?

Absolutely! Safety is our top priority. We use low-odour spray paint specifically designed for use around children. Additionally, all pupils are provided with high-quality protective gear, including gloves, masks, and overalls. Our professional artists are 'school-ready' and trained to provide constant supervision, ensuring that the primary school environment remains clean, safe, and incredibly fun for everyone involved. We handle the setup and cleanup so you don't have to!

How long does a typical school workshop last?

Typical primary school workshops in Ipoh last between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This allows enough time for a thorough safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time. We can easily adjust the schedule to fit around your school's morning or afternoon breaks. If you have multiple classes, we can run back-to-back sessions to ensure every student gets a chance to create their masterpiece.

Do the students need to have any prior drawing skills?

None at all! That is the beauty of street art. Our workshops are designed to be inclusive and accessible for children of all artistic abilities. Whether a student is a natural-born illustrator or has never held a paintbrush, our expert instructors guide them through simple, repeatable steps. By the end of the session, every child will have created something they can be truly proud of, boosting their confidence.

Where in the school does the workshop take place?

We are very flexible with locations! We can set up on your school's playground, in a well-ventilated sports hall, or even against a dedicated school wall if you're looking for a permanent mural. We use protective floor coverings and temporary wooden panels or canvases to ensure we don't leave any permanent marks where they aren't wanted. Ipoh’s weather is usually great, but we always have a Plan B for rain!

Do we need to pay in advance to book?

We believe in keeping things hassle-free for educators. You don't need to pay a penny upfront. At Graffitifun, we operate on a trust basis—you only pay after the workshop has been successfully completed and your students are buzzing with excitement. This ensures 100% satisfaction and makes the booking process much smoother for school administration and finance departments. Check out our cost calculator for an instant estimate.

Can the students create a joint mural for the school wall?

Yes! While we often work on individual canvases that children can take home, we also love creating collaborative "big picture" projects. Many schools in Ipoh choose to have students work together on a large mural that can be displayed in the school canteen, hallway, or playground. This is a fantastic way to teach teamwork and leave a lasting, colourful legacy of the workshop on the school grounds.
