“Year 2 thoroughly enjoyed the Titanic workshop because it was interesting and interactive! It was great that all children were involved and able to play a character aboard the ship in their own costume. Many facts and stories were shared about the Titanic during the workshop which developed the children’s learning.”

“ I would like to say that the children enjoyed the workshop very much and they learnt a lot about Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole and their roles. The workshop really helped the children when we did classroom activities and they were able to record many details which they would not have been able to remember without the workshop. So, thank you very much for a fantastic day in the life of Florence Nightingale. ”

“We have loved the work that the Matrix Theatre company does with our Year 2 children for many years, which is why we keep asking you back! Most recently the team were in doing their Great Fire of London workshop and it was again pleasing to notice that the workshop has been developed, with additional facts and props added in. The staff also do an excellent job of immersing the children in the ‘story’ and encouraging them to have and go and take part. This and the Florence Nightingale/Mary Seacole workshop both tie in exactly with the Year 2 History curriculum and help to get the children ready to produce high quality writing when back in the classroom. ”

“It was a fantastic experience for the children. At our Parents Evening we had a few parents comment on how much their children had enjoyed it. It definitely is a memorable part of our Topic and we will definitely book you again next year.
I have always loved the Matrix Theatre workshops and what is great is that you bring the history to life and enable them to understand it fully.”

“We very much enjoyed the Great Fire of London workshop. It really brought the topic to life for the children and allowed them all to feel involved in the experience. I have been consistently impressed by the standard of your workshops and the educational value they provide in a single session. ”

“Thank you so much for your fantastic Guy Fawkes workshop that you did today at Southfield Park. The children loved it and learnt so much.”
