WHAT TEACHERs SAY...
Wow! What a brilliant day…thank you so much for inspiring the children with your fabulous workshops. The children came away buzzing with information and facts. You are SO amazing!
Hiltingbury Infant School
It was fantastic! ALL the children were engaged and valued and information was presented in a fun/child friendly way. Perfectly pitched - my children loved it!
Manor Infant School (Portsmouth)
To us it is invaluable! Reinforcing what they know plus it's done in such a fun way. (The children) always learn more from this workshop. The London now and then is a great intro and everyone is involved and ideas are valued.
Orchard Lea Infant SchooL
Such a wonderful experience for both the children and the adults. You do such a fantastic job at bringing the topic to life. I can't believe how much wonderful information you give to the children in such a short space of time. Thank you again.
Meredith Infant School
Excellent activities with active and engaging ways of sharing the facts and events plus key language linked to the Great Fire. I love your ideas for helping the children remember key aspects and will be using them in class.
Grayshott Primary School
We learnt lots and did it in a really fun way. It was useful to see what the children knew already - in terms of assessment too. I don't feel it could be improved. It is by far the thing that I look forward to most every year! The children just love it!
Alton Infant School
(Valued) the background information about life in London before the Fire as this workshop came at the start of the topic. Interactive activities. It was brilliant!
