What the schools say...
2023/24
‘Really well-informed, great pace and opportunities for children to participate.’ Nauman Hijaz – Class Teacher Lyon Park Primary
‘This was an amazing experience for the children.’ Mrs Hazel - Class Teacher
Elsley Primary
2022/23
‘Children were able to get a deeper understanding of the word 'bullying'.
I believe that the workshop helped children to understand that bullying is something that happens again and again. The theatrical element engaged the children to help grasp the concept and the facilitators explained these clearly by going over misconceptions. AWESOME workshop and we can’t wait to invite the Monster Cat Theatre company back into our school community again.’ Anthony Chambers - Class Teacher, Year 4 Lead, Beaconsfield Primary
‘This workshop was excellent and it provided our pupils with lots of knowledge about how to prevent bullying from happening in our school. It made them think about scenarios that they might not have realised is bullying. I can highly recommend this workshop!
The roles were portrayed in a great way. It was very easy for the children to understand it and they were equipped with tools for each role.’ Helena Cok - Class Teacher, Ark Byron Primary Academy
2021/22
‘The workshop was excellent. All children were able to participate and improve their awareness of bullying. Erica and Richard’s delivery was excellent – they were professional, kind, funny and engaging. All children benefited hugely from the experience and I would highly recommend booking this workshop.’ Grange Primary - Miss McDonagh (class teacher)
‘It was a useful, productive workshop which the children benefited from. The approach to the topic was wide-ranging – bully, bystander and the victim. Roleplays, image theatre and activities were enjoyable, well-managed and effective for the children. -Thanks’ Ravenor Primary - Mr Shane O’Neill (class teacher)

‘A very well run workshop which, above all, made our children really think of how they deal with bullying (especially as a bystander) but also as a victim or a bully’. Edmond Brooks, St Joseph’s Primary (class teacher)
‘My class have really grabbed hold of the idea that laughing gives power to the bully. I don’t think they realised how negative laughing can be’. Eva Wharton, West Acton Primary (class teacher)
2019
‘Well run, well timed, clearly planned, good dialogue with school beforehand, engaging for all children, raised awareness and understanding of how to recognise and deal with bullying’. Shane O’Neill, St. John’s Primary School (class teacher)
