“Our session leader David was incredibly engaging and funny, the children had a great time. I was particularly in awe of how the scenes we enacted were inventively staged and arranged so that EVERY pupil in my class could contribute valuably.”

“I was a little surprised when only one person turned up. But Ashley turned out to be brilliant with our special needs pupils and had them all engaged throughout. A couple of things that could be improved upon is the use of props as it was taken for granted that all pupils knew the story well (where the wild things are) and although the day was for World book day there wasn't a book in sight or props of any kind. Luckily most classes had read the book beforehand. Also the same activities were carried out from Year 1 to Year 6 with no differentiation. Otherwise I could not fault Ashley and his obvious enthusiasm for drama.”

“The only reason for not giving "Very Good", was the price. We understand that it cost a lot to transport someone from London to Aberdeen, however, perhaps if you had more schools to visit in Scotland it could work out cheaper? Actual visit by Kilka was wonderful. She was enthusiastic, interested in what we'd been doing and very flexible. She built on the strengths of our pupils, providing challenge to those who were more able and quietly supported those who were less confident. We are going to use what she did with us at an assembly for parents and the community.”

“The choreographer was great. Some differentiation between year group would have been helpful. Especially to year r who struggled to keep up with the dancing. On the whole it was great to work with a professional dancer but we are not sure if it was worth the money.”

“The children were engaged throughout the performance, enjoying all of the songs and the storytelling. The story supported the national curriculum whilst also being accessible to the younger year groups.”

“All children enjoyed the work shop. The assembly was a great way to start the day. Would have been nicer if the individual workshops were a little longer as they felt slightly rushed.”

“The children very much enjoyed all activities and the planned activities were excellent. The only issue we had was that the timings over ran a little so the final group didn't have as long. Overall, an excellent day though!”

“The children really enjoyed the sessions. It acted as a really good starting point for studying Shakespeare. It helped to debunk the myth that Shakespearean language is complicated.”

“The children were very engaged with high expectations and good learning behaviour being upheld. The session was age appropriate and inspired the children and teachers to develop expression and movement within our regular drama sessions. It was a fantastic opportunity for those pupils with SEN and for the more able to express themselves.”

“It was great getting all children active and involved. One thing that would have been better is if the children could get a more secure understanding of the story rather than just covering a few small scenes. Lots were still confused about the story by the end.”

“Pupils really enjoyed the sessions and the behaviour management was great! The session offered opportunities for team building and working together (PSHE great) However, The staff didn't feel like it had a particular theme/message around anti-bullying, as we had expected. Nevertheless, the dance teacher was fantastic, the pupils all engaged, even year 6 boys, and pupil feedback was very positive. Thank you”

“What an excellent 2 person show. Our Nursery, Reception, Y1 and Y2 children were riveted from start to finish. The Cinderella show had comedy, drama, magic and plenty of audience participation, all totally relevant and appropriate to the age of our children. They loved every minute.”

“Great acting and engagement with the audience. KS2 however, found the story easier to follow than KS1.”
