With a hundred different sessions, each one allowing children to explore a range of themes, places and situations, sparking their interest and imaginations about the world we live in.
Classses are age appropiate and have EYFS and Key Stage 1 goals built in to each adventure.
WHAT DOES A SESSION LOOK LIKE
Nursery and Reception children – Sessions last 45 mins and consists of a story, games and an adventure. Our sessions have a clear structure to them but throughout the adventures, our tutors cleverly listen to the children’s imaginations and steer the adventure accordingly, making each adventure unique to them.
We are also accompanied by Pip (our very special puppet who the children adore).
For Years 1 and 2 – classes are one hour long and we explore games and drama techniques to help the children create their own adventures and stories. Techniques like story structure, narration, freeze frames, role play, hot seating and movement are all explored in a fun and imaginative way. We also slowly start introducing that strange concept of an audience.
We are accompanied by our somewhat cheeky monkey puppet Morris!
HOW OFTEN WE VISIT
Most of our schools we attend weekly, but others once every half term and some as one off sessions on an ad-hoc basis.
We’d be happy to come and have a chat with you, tell you a little bit more about what we do and find out what would work best for you and the children you care for. References available.

“I LOVE the hello song and the fact that you talk about it being ok to not be happy. The children loved the game and were completely engrossed in the adventure. It’s so clever and has so much in it; maths, science, healthy eating!!! The pace was so great and I loved the way you drew the children in with questions and really pushed them to use their imaginations. I thought of a million things that the children could do after. It is so cross curricular.”
Charlotte Wren – Reception teacher, London
