Our workshops and shows are a lot of fun and your pupils will love being a part them but don’t just take our word for it. Here are some of the things schools we’ve already worked with have to say about us…

Drama Workshops…

I and the children thoroughly enjoy having Imagination Education in school. Whatever I have requested, they have been able to deliver including costume, knowledge of the subject and giving the children opportunity to become active learners. It’s a brilliant way to begin or end a topic. I have experienced four of their workshops now, and each time have been entirely satisfied. Thank you.

‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ storytelling session…

We would highly recommend Imagination Education. The interactive storytelling session that they wrote and performed was outstanding! They key elements of the story were delivered through a fantastic mix of music, singing, dancing and acting, with the added bonus of audience participation. They clearly have an excellent understanding of their audience.

We can help bring any subject or story to life through drama. Here are some Year 6 pupils acting out scenes from ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ as part of their Literacy Unit. Shakespeare was written to be acted out!

Suzy Sunshine and the Lost Nursery Rhymes Show…

“The Nursery Rhyme characters came to life in front of the children’s eyes.  The magic of the show captured their attention.  Any performance which can hold the attention of 80 3 and 4 year olds for nearly an hour must be worth it!  Not to be missed!”

– FS1 Teacher, Star International, Mirdif

‘Whatever Next’ Storytelling session…

Both the staff and children in FS2 loved seeing the story ‘Whatever Next’ come to life. It was a great way to conclude our ‘Space’ themed week. The story was brought to life, engaging the children tremendously. The actors are talented, creative and full of energy; telling the story in such an imaginative way. For our children the interactive stories are perfect! And it’s great that you can work around our needs- we chose the story and you brought it to life. We will definitely be booking this type of session again with Imagination Education.

Emirates LitFest Performances…

“I absolutely loved what Imagination Education did and it was clear that the audience did too with the crowd that was watching… The book, the characters and of course, Suzy Sunshine’s energy, was just brilliant!”

Whatever the year group, our drama workshops help to spark creativity.

Suzy’s National Day Adventure Show…

“Each and every pupil enjoyed the show… They were totally engaged, even the children that get distracted easily. There was always a new game or surprise to capture their attention. I have even heard them singing the songs! It was fun and interactive and pitched at the correct level for young children.”

Suzy Sunshine and the Lost Nursery Rhymes and Suzy’s Book Day Adventure Shows…

“They (the pupils) had a brilliant time and are still talking about it a week later! They really enjoyed the interaction of having to put the characters in the book. They thought the performances were really funny, in particular the hungry caterpillar and the pants coming out of the book!”

Training Aztec warriors. Did you know the Aztecs gave prisoners feathers to fight with? Our ‘Step back in Time’ history workshops are full of fun facts!

Once Upon a Time in a Nursery Rhyme – Drama Workshop…

“The children enjoyed every aspect of the workshop and it sparked much conversation on returning to class. My wow moment was a little girl who attempted to write for the first time to annotate her picture… A brilliant performance, wealth of ideas and most of all, captured the imaginations of very young children.”

– FS1 Teacher, Star International, Mirdif

Step Back in Time – History Drama Workshop…

“The children loved getting to act in role as a variety of characters in the workshop today. This helped them think of the Victorians as real people as opposed to just people in a photograph. The children especially liked it when the drama leaders lapsed into role as the Victorian school teachers. It helped them to think deeply and learn in a fun way.”

Suzy’s Book Day Adventure…

” A really fun, exciting and interactive adventure into the wonderful world of books! It engaged the children and was a creative way of encouraging their imagination through storytelling! The children loved it- it was great that it included characters they have been learning about! They loved being chosen to get up and join in and the songs were engaging and exciting for the children – It linked really well with our current topic!”

Suzy’s Perfect Pet…

The staff at Imagination Education were fantastic from the start and very accommodating. They created a show based on our topic and really made the story of ‘Dear Zoo’ come to life!! The children were engaged and attentive throughout the performance and the songs and dancing made the show even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend for Early Years children. Thank-you so much again Suzy Sunshine and Gang!!

We use all sorts of props in all our shows – including puppets!

Drama and movement topic based workshop…

Thank you so much for an engaging and fun session that the children thoroughly enjoyed. It was great to see them apply the knowledge and skills that they had learnt within their ‘Enchanted Forest’ topic in a practical situation. The fact that we were able to specify the objectives and stories explored meant that the workshops were relevant for our children and purposeful for their learning.

– FS2, Deira International School

 

Suzy Sunshine and the Lost Nursery Rhymes Show…

The children were all engaged throughout the whole show. They thoroughly enjoyed it and it was pitched at the perfect level for them. They were frequently asked to participate which kept them completely engaged. The big booked worked really well. They enjoyed the different characters and the puppets. A great way to bring Nursery Rhymes to life – keeping the children engaged and excited in a fun and stimulating way.

– Pre K and KG1 Leader, Jumeirah Baccalaureate School
