“I have been attending the School since I was 10 years old. It has been such a great experience and I have loved every minute. I have improved my confidence, the teachers are amazing: they have all helped me grow as a person. I have also made some great friends. Thank you to everyone at the school for making it such a great place to be!”
Aurelia, Student – 2022
“The teachers are lovely, kind and caring people and they really help with everything. In the lessons pupils, like myself, always have fun playing drama games and doing all activities. Anna Fiorentini Theatre & Film School really helped me gain confidence and I made more friends too!”
Maya, Student – 2022
“My son’s confidence and even the the way he speaks and interacts with adults and children has improved. The fact that he’s learning life skills on how to communicate and interact with others through play and drama. He is flourishing in both his home life and school thanks to the Fiorentini Weenies sessions.”
Sarah Barrett, Parent of Student – 2022
“My children love attending the Theatre & Film School. There are times where I have had to cancel/postpone events because they have kicked up such a fuss about missing the class. The children love their teachers, Drew and Erika. They also think that Rhiannon looks like Mirebel from Encanto. Anna, Rhiannon and Conor are all so personable whenever you contact them so that is always a bonus!”
Ekua Quartey, Parent of Students – 2022
“I love going to Drama classes and singing and dancing. It makes me really happy and I have a really good time.”
Nicole, Student – 2022
“The Anna Fiorentini Theatre & Film School has been part of our lives for the past 4 years and it has been a great partnership. It’s the place my daughter has always felt the happiest, allowing her to be herself – encouraging, directing her best abilities and teaching her to believe in herself and developing her talents. For those reasons it is forever part of her life and I am grateful.”
Mum of a Student
“I was very impressed with the atmosphere of the school and the energy and enthusiasm of the teaching staff which clearly transfers to the students. I felt the excellent standard of the performances was enhanced by the warmth and support, which is evident, amongst the students and staff alike. To set up a school of this calibre takes a lot of hard work and passion which is also evident. To create an atmosphere conducive to learning the theatrical arts, which encourages support amongst the students, is a natural skill that you and your teachers clearly possess.”
Audience Member
“Before my son started, he was extremely shy and lacked confidence, being at Anna Fiorentini Theatre and Film school under the bursary scheme has sincerely helped his confidence at school and at home.”
Melissa McIntyre, Parent of a Student – 2022
“I appreciate the effort the teachers and staff at the school make and the enthusiasm that’s shown towards the kids. It has been a very long and difficult year for my son due to his own health issues and having to come to terms with his father’s ill health has been very testing on him, and coming to Anna Fiorentini Theatre & Film School has given my son a chance to explore ideas, gain confidence and its really helped him make friends which was very difficult when he was at school and I have seen him really grow as an individual.”
Mum of a Student
“I’d just like to say thank you, as my daughter has grown with more confidence over the time she has been coming to the Theatre & Film School. She is now doing a TV and Film Production course at University.”
Mum of a Student
“I’ve been aware of the great work that the Anna Fiorentini Performing Arts School has been doing for many years. The School’s ethos to provide a safe, fun and supportive environment for all young people to explore, create and express themselves, no matter their background is something that is extremely important to me.”
