“The children were engaged in the workshops and really enjoyed the activities. The leader was able to control the classes well and was professional, yet friendly at all times.”

“Maria was fantastic with our children, they were fascinated by everything she told them and showed them. When they were dancing they all participated and were so happy. As teachers, we loved it too and have taken a lot away with us to use in our own teaching. Thank you very much!”

“Children thoroughly enjoyed the workshops as a result of tutors who understand their subject, the needs of the children (very quickly) and offered sessions that were effective and, just as important, fun!”

“Involved the children with the story of Diwali through both acting and dancing. Children were then able to share a better understanding of the Diwali themes, as well as learning a fun, Indian dance. For improvement - the story reviewed wasn't 100% the same as the synopsis in the pack sent prior to the workshop, so it would be better if they were linked completely. Thank you!”

“All pre-planning and communication was good. John the dancer turned up on time and was well prepared. It cost each child about £6.00 for the experience. First half hour was an assembly for both classes where we practised some of the moves by retelling the Gingerbread Man. This cleverly linked to parts in The Ramayana story. First group had full 40 minute workshop but second group had finished in 30 minutes. They should have got their full time really. It would have been good if we could have kept a copy of the dance notes and been able to download the music to keep as part of the price. It was a good experience for the children and we live in quite an affluent area but can see price might put some schools off as John came and went within 2 hours so was it value for money without being able to keep some of the materials? We have previously paid £10 and had visitors here all day.”

“The assemblies on both days were excellent. They were interactive and fun, whilst being informative at the same time. The workshops were very suited to the age range and all children and staff enjoyed them. Excellent staff on both days. We will definitely consider the same for next year.”

“The drama workshops were very fun and engaging! This was the same from reception all the way to year 6. Lots of the children were heard talking about how much they enjoyed their workshop. It was also a wonderful way to introduce many of the eco-school topics to the children and hopefully these sessions will help frame our next steps. I would say that as a point of improvement that the end ‘final presentation’ although exciting, could be a little better. It was a tight squeeze fitting in all the year groups and it was a big job for one person. However, it was great that the children could see each other’s work and I loved watching the children’s reactions. Thank you so much for visiting us!”

“Really engaging and the instructor really engaged the children with her enthusiasm. Very active sessions with children in the sessions ranging from Reception to Year 6 and they were all age appropriate. This is our second year and I would definately book again!!!”

“What a fantastic few days we have had with Hollie, our wonderful dance teacher from West End in Schools. Our children were fully engaged throughout the assemblies and workshops, and were desperate to have a second lesson with her. They have learnt the Ramayana story sufficiently and have a much better understanding of Diwali. I would definitely recommend West End in Schools and look forward to inviting them back.”

“The workshop was linked to our recent topic of Hinduism and focused on dance. The children thoroughly enjoyed the experience and allowed those children who may be less academic to shine. The knowledge imparted relating to the dance fitted in perfectly to what we have been covering.”

“What a great start to the new school year and a fantastic way to launch our new 'be the change' curriculum. Every child in the school was able to access the drama. The final assembly shared optimistic messages about how we can all do our bit to help the planet. Thank you Jess.”

“Our children thoroughly enjoyed the workshop. It was a great way to consolidate the learning they had completed in class as well as give the children an opportunity to learn in a different way. The workshop was professionally run and it was wonderful to see the children work together towards their final piece.”

“Wow! What an amazing day with West End In Schools! Our Year 3 and 4 children took great delight in discovering their inner dancer as they brought to life the story of 'Where the Wild Things Are' through music and movement. An excellent stimulus for writing and make literature accessible for children who might struggle with different concepts. Thank you - hope we work together again soon.”

“Our recent workshops were enjoyed by all of the children ranging in age from reception class to Yr6. Our facilitator Kate Ann was enthusiastic and full of energy. The delivery was very well differentiated to the ages of the children and all were engaged throughout the session.”
