Testimonials

The children all managed to create artwork they were genuinely proud of and wanted to show the whole school. Even those who shy away from drawing and painting persevered, as it was accessible for all. They loved the activities. And all the staff were very impressed with the work, including the Head and Deputy.

Thank you very much for the Ancient Greek Workshop that you taught last Thursday. The class had a fantastic time and talked about nothing else on Friday. They learnt a lot during the day and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

All the children thoroughly enjoyed the workshops and increased their knowledge of Ancient Greece and improved their art skills.
