Brooke has been working with Schools, pre-preps and nursery’s for several years as a storyteller and drama teacher. She brings children’s awareness of their community and their environment to life working with them by using movement, music, props, action and their imagination in a fun and supportive drama storytelling session.

Each week the children join Brooke and Amii in an interactive action-packed adventure, through enchanted forests, rain forests, volcanoes, outer space, fairy tale settings, the deep sea or where ever their imaginations take them.

“Entertaining kids is a talent which requires energy, imagination, patience and a genuine love of children. Brooke has it all.”

I am a recent graduate from the Drama, Applied Theatre and Education at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. I am a Performing Arts Teacher and have co-cordinated drama workshops with all ages. Last year I visited India where I spent a month working with young people and teachers in Mumbai. Prior to India, I worked at a primary school in Kentish Town for a term providing drama workshops for the Year One class and from 2012 to 2013 I helped to run an after school drama club for ages four to ten. I have also helped to produce, as well as perform in, several productions, including a piece of family theatre commissioned by the Fuse Arts Festival in Kent.

Tag rugby is a non contact sport in which each player wears a belt with two Velcro tags attached to it.  The mode of play is based on normal rugby with rugby players attempting to dodge, evade and pass a rugby ball while defenders attempt to prevent them scoring by “tagging”- pulling a Velcro attached tag from the ball carrier, rather than a full contact tackle.

Hi my name is Sam and I have been the football coach at Whitehall Park School for the last 2 years. I have my FA Level 1 and 2 Coaching Badges and have 10 years experience of coaching children’s football which is something I am very passionate about. I aim to make all classes fun and enjoyable for the children whilst teaching them the key skills of football, it gives me great pride in watching them develop their skills and become better footballers.
In my spare time I play semi-professional football and am the Captain of Hertford Town Football Club.
I am looking forward to continuing my coaching at Whitehall Park School and working with the children who attend my classes.

Archery is a fantastic sport that can be played either indoors or outdoors.   The children will be challenged in a way that other sports can’t provide, especially when it comes to coordination, skills and upper body strength.  We play a variety of different games that help to keep the children engaged and motivated to progress within the sport.  The children also learn about responsibility as they help with setting up and packing away the equipment and the older children thoroughly enjoy teaching and training the younger ones.  I highly recommend the sport to everyone, it is a sport for all!!

At Whitehall, our qualified French Native Teacher this year is called Julie. Julie is using the method “Alex et Zoé” as well as other material to bring the language to life for the children! The classes are kept small to maximize oral expression and work on each child’s needs. Above all the lessons are made fun, being taught through games and role-play with the use of educational prompts and puppets.

I trained at the Arts Educational school in Tring from the age of 11-18. Here I was classically trained in ballet, tap, modern, spanish, contempary, and jazz dance following the RAD and ISTD syllabus. Whist at Tring, I was also trained in drama, music and singing.

I then went on to gain a BA HONS degree from Mountview Acamdamy of Theatre Arts specialising in Musical Theatre.

After graduating from drama school, I performed in many shows throughout the country varying from Romeo and Juliet, Sleeping Beauty, West Side Story to Pantomime. I have performed as a saxophonist and been lucky enough to have featured on BBC radio 2, and performed at the BBC Jazz awards. I was also heavily involved in a theatre company specialising in Theatre In Education.

In 2011 I set up a North London franchise for “Babyballet” and now teaches over 300 children a week. For the past three years I have been nominated for the most outstanding activities leader in the South of England for “What’s on 4 little ones”

I am delighted to have been at Whitehall Park as an after school teacher since it opened. It has been so lovely to watch the school and children grow.

His style of b-boying is unmistakable and myth defying. At 6ft 2ins Ajay’s abundant mix of originality, powermoves, character and stage presence are magnified by his stature to great effect, creating exciting shapes delivered with fantastic flow and energy.
Following in the footsteps of his mentor and coach DJ Regade, Ajay also teaches b-boying. Ajay is proud to be laying the foundations for future generations to build upon and is a great role model for aspiring dancers.

I was born in Vichy in France, I’ve been living in London for 20 years. As I often tell the children, I didn’t speak any English when I was their age and started learning the language when I was 12. I loved it straight away and when I grew up, I wanted nothing more than live where English is spoken.

I trained as a Montessori nursery teacher and I’ve been working with children and running French Clubs for 15 years.

I’m also a mum of two: Rosaline who is 7 and Justin who is 5, and in the little spare time they allow me, I love reading, movies and food!
