“We had West End in Schools come to 'bring books to life' for our World Book Day. This was the second time we have used them and we have booked again already for next year. Alex, our session lead, was instrumental in encouraging all children, including those with additional needs, to take part in recreating the chosen story (Where the Wild Things Are) through exoressive dance and movement. This opportunity was actively enjoyed by the children and helped to make our World Book Day special.”

“Absolutely amazing workshop, yet again. Christy engaged even our most reluctant pupils and they all had a fantastic day. It's amazing what can be achieved in such a short amount of time!”

“This is the second 'Bringing Books to Life' session we have had. All of our classes had the Pinocchio workshops this time round, and loved it! Every pupil was enaged and enjoyed the workshopps (even our often reluctant older boys!). Thank you for wonderful, engaging sessions, which made World Book Day extra fun!”

“All classes from Reception to Year 6 had a wonderful time. Katy, the lead from WestEnd, was amazing. Full of energy - she managed the children really well - never giving them a second to be distracted. They enjoyed being the characters in the books and all the drama activities they played. A throughly enjoyable experience for all. Thank you.”

“Pupils really enjoyed creating freeze frames that represented key events in the text: Where the Wild Things Are. All pupils engaged in the warm up activity which was well led. It was also good that Alex made sure that everyone had a role too so that they were all participating. All pupils enjoyed bringing the story to life and the activities were well-pitched.”

“Our KS2 childrent thoroughly enjoyed their West End in Schools experience! It really made them think about how to portray certain characters, for example, the question was asked, "How does this character walk? Does he walk using his knees first, his elbows, chest etc.?" Thank you so much for a thoroughly exciting day.”

“We had a wonderful day of story telling - the children were enthralled! Stacey worked so hard to engage every child, she really caught their imagination and they were fully involved with the dance she taught them. It was brilliant!”

“All our classes thoroughly enjoyed their World Book Day workshops. Ellie, the workshop leader, did a remarkable job of bringing the texts to life in an engaging and fun way, which also supported the children's understanding of the stories. A real buzz was created around the texts and the children had a wonderful day.”

“Chris was fantastic! He ran each workshop efficiently and engaged the children right from the beginning. He began by introducing the story to children and recapping what they already knew, making sure to highlight the setting and the characters. The children participated in a fun warm- up before he introduced the workshop. Each workshop was appropriately planned allowing children to use their own ideas as well as those he suggested to them. There were opportunities to ask questions and share ideas throughout. The performance at the end of each workshop allowed the children to showcase their piece and perform this successfully to music. We would welcome Chris back in a heartbeat! I will certainly recommend him and the company to the other schools in our Federation. A massive thank you from the children and staff at Sutton Primary Academy. I am unable to attach photos to this review but please feel free to share our Facebook Post on the visit on our school page! :)”

“What a fantastic day! Julia arrived nice and early with her DBS and ID - which doesn't always happen with visitors! Julia had 7 sessions over the course of the day, from our smallest in Nursery right through to Year 6. We chose 'Where the Wild THings Are' as our book for the day and the differentiation was clear between the age groups. The children had great fun performing to music and creating their own pieces of dance under Julia's careful and clear direction. Many of my staff commneted on what an excellent teacher Julia was - we would cheerfully have her on our staff! Thanks for a wonderful day!”

“Not such a great session this year, perhaps the text was too complicated. There was a lot of talking and a lot for the children to try to remember and not much active participation.”
