Become sensory explorers, experiencing the jungle from the top of the canopy down to the forest floor Have fun meeting new friends, like butterflies, snakes, elephants and parrots along the way, even party with a dancing monkey! Feel the vines and leaves around you whilst you hear and see the wonders of the jungle. Our Artsmark-accredited workshops help those who are sensory seekers to explore subjects through performance and interaction. All of our workshops take the format of a very simple narrative exploring the particular theme. We work to a basic framework but are guided by the pupil’s responses, taking time with each individual and making an offer of engagement. If they choose to accept the offer we help them explore that particular sensory element. We provide social visual stories ahead of the workshop to help your learners prepare for our visit. For a fee, we can create a bespoke workshops themed around your learners' particular interests or curriculum.

“The pupils were all mesmerised and had such a great time. I was so pleased to see the EYFS children so engaged with the facilitators, who managed the larger groups amazingly... One child in EYFS was particularly vocal about the different jungle animals and at one point a child laid across the soft 'lion' rug, it was so nice to see how the children engaged with the facilitators and the props. It was also great to see how the sense of smell was incorporated into the sessions”
“All pupils engaged with the workshops in some capacity. Children really liked the multi-sensory element to the sessions. We also appreciate the freedom of the sessions and honouring the children's need to move around the classroom.”
"The pupils showed great responses throughout the workshop. They had great engagement and were effortlessly meeting their curriculum targets"
