Teachers:
I just wanted to express my gratitude for such a wonderful program. Sue (Leblanc) was amazing and opened up our students and teacher’s minds. It is wonderful to see a child’s confidence grow over the course of time. Thanks so much for coordinating this project. It is so worthwhile.

Students:
I never thought I’d ever dance in front of people. It’s hard but felt great and I feel more confident.
– Cheryl (Student, North Colchester High School, CCRSB)
We never did theatre before. It was really great and I learned a lot. I’m going to do more at Neptune Theatre School because I love it now.

Thanks for knocking out my fear of speaking by myself. I was the narrator in “The Fire Bringer”.

Workshops:
The workshop was a brilliant success. We did the evaluation forms together some weeks later. What a bonus that turned out to be! I heard from the children about what had remained with them over a length of time. Patrice really made a delightful and positive impression on them. This was such a success, I hope we can build on this in a few years’ time.
