Developing performance skills, promoting self-expression & building confidence

‘Bookings for Jigsaw’s Fun and Interactive Performing Arts Classes are OPEN for Next Term and we are so excited to welcome new faces and expand our Jigsaw Community. Two-week trial available to new Students.

Singing ~ Dance ~ Drama for ages 3-4 | 5-6 | 7-18 |

The classes are designed to improve your child's confidence, teach them new skills in the Performing Arts, and give them a creative space to make golden memories with new friends!

Visit our website to find a Jigsaw School near you https://www.jigsaw-arts.co.uk/weekend-schools/

Jigsaw was established in 1995 with a desire to pass on the joy of performing arts. The belief in the benefits of performing arts activities for children was the driving force in the creation of Jigsaw and the reason why Jigsaw has continued to grow and become a well-established high quality provider of children’s classes. Jigsaw has a team of dedicated and enthusiastic professionals who are committed to delivering fun and exciting dance, drama and singing classes.

Every student can benefit, in some way, from the performing arts. While some join us to build a firm foundation for a professional performance career, others do so to unlock their hidden talents, overcome their shyness or increase their confidence and social skills. However, what all students enjoy is having fun through drama, singing and dance classes, while making lots of new friends.

Children ages 3-6 years attend a 90-minute session divided into three sections of dance, drama and singing. Students aged 7-18 years attend a three-hour session comprising of an hour of drama, an hour of singing and an hour of dance, each with a specialist tutor. To establish an environment that builds confidence, regardless of individual ability, students are divided into appropriate age bands. All students will be challenged to their full potential.

If you’ve not been involved in anything like the performing arts before, we offer a two-week trial to all new students, so come along and see for yourself! Fees for a whole term depend on the venue, visit our website to find out more. Sibling discounts apply and you can pay online, over the telephone or via our direct debit scheme.

Jigsaw currently runs classes throughout London, the home counties, Oxford and Wales. Visit www.jigsaw-arts.co.uk to find your nearest school, or give us a call on 020 8108 0485. Jigsaw also offers holiday camps and birthday parties as well as running an in-house agency.

What’s on 4 Kids 2017 Awards – Voted Best National Activity for Children aged 5-12 years old - 4th consecutive year - Voted for by Parents & Children

For over 30 years La Jolie Ronde has been a unique centre for learning not just a second language but a platform for introducing children to the everyday realities of the country and the culture they are studying. Our award winning programme, for 0-12 years, contains stories, action poems, chants, songs and games enabling children to learn whilst having fun! Children progress through the programme and there are different starting points so children can start learning French or Spanish whatever their age following a programme tailored to their age group. Topics are based on real life situations suited to the interest, experience and social development of each age group.

WHY LEARN ANOTHER LANGUAGE?

• ENHANCE LIFE SKILLS - Speaking another language opens the door to new possibilities & opportunities. Travel and lifelong friendships are built with the people you meet along the way if you're able to communicate easily
• DEVELOP CONFIDENCE & SELF ESTEEM - Learning a second language is incredibly rewarding and can enrich personal life too. We encourage children to use language in real life situations which in turn will enable them to overcome fears and doubts leaving them feeling much more confident
• BOOST OTHER LEARNING - Research has found that pupils who study foreign languages, tend to score better at standardised tests than their monolingual peers. This has been particularly noticeable in maths, reading, and vocabulary
• IMPROVE YOUR EMPLOYABILITY - Our globalised world means companies are constantly expanding overseas plus dealing with clients from all over the world. Speaking a second language enables you to communicate with a broader network

WHY CHOOSE US OVER OTHERS?
