“Both myself and our Year 3/4 teacher thought it was great!  I thought that it was done with a seriousness and professionalism that belied the children's ages and I could see how each piece had built on a deeper investigation of a theme or a question.

We would really like to be involved.”

“Just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed the festival last week. It

Was a fantastic experience for the children and staff, I'm so please that

we got involved. Congratulations to yourself and all your team for putting

on such an inspirational event. Please could you send me a copy of the

certificate, so that we can have one for each child?

I look forward to watching 'part 2' in June & collaborating with you next

Year.

“…...many thanks for the support you gave to us at Shavington during the M.S.N.D. project. The children wrote some extremely thoughtful reviews of their day at the theatre - an experience that we all thoroughly enjoyed! They clearly gained so much from the experience and, whilst they felt proud and elated by their performance, they were sorry because it was so final (many wanted to start it all over again!!) Both they, and I, have been inspired by the project. It has been enlightening for me to see how drama can be used to form the basis of so much creativity and make words 'come to life'. Many children who were previously writers discovered that, by becoming a character or being in a setting, they were capable of writing and actually enjoyed it. I look forward to the Romeo and Juliet production with renewed enthusiasm for teaching.”

“Thanks for an inspirational time. I am buzzing with all I have learnt and can't wait to start delivering the scheme of work as well as incorporating more drama in other aspects of my teaching.”
