We deliver creative, inspiring, fun and energetic workshops, assemblies and performances. Themes can be selected from one of our many workshop themes, or the focus and learning objective can be tailor-made especially for you. Our curriculum linked workshops can improve pupils mental health and well-being whilst supporting children’s spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.

The workshop uses practical comedy and improvisation exercises (solo/group), games and role plays - interweaved with small sections of motivational presentation and peer discussion/feedback, to build students' understanding of employability, soft skills (primarily interpersonal skills), the power of thinking of their lives as a story to be written (for HE/job applications) and learning through failure.

Introduce children to a unique and innovative approach to storytelling in which the team will bring a mythical story to life in front of the children’s eyes. Through linking the story to the book that will have been discovered prior to the visit, children will be able to become part of the story and will be used as a crucial element of this interactive, learning journey.

Workshop Provided by Emily Fellah

In a typical session I show the group my portfolio and demonstrate how I create characters. I introduce them to some inspiring illustrated fiction then teach them to draw a character step-by-step. I take the group through the fundamentals of character creation, then support them in creating original characters and either comic strips or picture book plans.
