With an
unrivalled team of quality educators and performers (see Meet
Our Team), we can re-design our programs to meet the needs of
individual schools. Anything
from a single presenter running a single class through several
activities, to a team of eight or ten running entire year levels
through several days of activities.
Our emphasis
is always on giving the students hands on interaction with the
topics, in a way which allows them to interpret the period
clearly.
They rotate through ‘active’ all participate sessions; and
‘passive’ watch and learn through role-play sessions; and
'interactive' taking turns segments.
That way we can balance their attention to preclude
over-stimulation or boredom.
Most of our
sessions are designed for individual class groups, or a maximum of
32 participants. We have a few topics suitable for larger
groups (and are willing to start or finish a day with large group
sessions); but prefer not to run whole days without small
group interaction activities, which we think give better
educational value.
"A
great morning.
The
interactive nature of the activities is ideal for boys of this age…
We’ll be booking again!!" Alan
Bliss – Melbourne Grammar 2002
It is
particularly important to us that many students who do not cope
well with traditional ‘blackboard’ learning, respond
enthusiastically to the multi-sensory and kinesthetic components of
our programs.
Many schools have commented on the number of‘difficult’ students
who rave about our visits.
"I
was particularly pleased to see those non-academic students and
those with special needs (an autistic boy) actively
engaged.
I
have never seen a particular student smile and he was grinning from
ear to ear during the tournament!!!" J
Heim – Viewbank College 2002
We measure our
success by how many good questions the students can ask during and
after our activities.
