📚 July Summer Workshop: Revolting Children!
This July, we are heading to Crunchem Hall for an unforgettable workshop inspired by the magical world of MATILDA THE MUSICAL!
Our “Young Echoes” will join the revolt and explore the story of a girl who proves that even if you’re little, you can do a lot! The theme of Matilda celebrates the power of the imagination, the importance of kindness, and the bravery to change your own story. It’s an empowering, high-energy week designed to help every child find their “inner genius” and build incredible confidence.
What’s in store?
