What schools say
“This was an outstanding workshop. The learning was pitched 100% correctly to the age group and the workshop leader managed the children really well. The children were engaged and found the workshop thoroughly enjoyable. What impressed us the most was how much the children learned through drama- the kinaesthetic learning help then remember facts.”
