Weenies Hackney (4-6 Years)

If you are unable to make our Taster Day date, please get in touch and we’ll arrange an alternative for you.

Fiorentini Weenies classes introduce early-years students to the fun and excitement of the performing arts. In a safe and nurturing environment, children can explore new skills, make new friends and have fun.

The classes will include a combination of singing, dance and drama and will be designed to encourage creative and social development. We aim to inspire young imaginations and build confidence through inventive play, basic performance skills covering drama, signing and dance and artistic self-expression.

Our teachers are talented, enthusiastic and highly experienced in working with this age-group. All teachers are fully DBS checked and have undertaken Safeguarding training as well as Covid-19 Infection Prevention & Control training.

Once your Weenie reaches the age of 7 they will be ready to graduate up to our Main School which we can make an easy transition. They will have built the foundations of a successful performer and will be ready to challenge and enjoy themselves further in the Main School. In the Main School they can use the fundamentals they have been taught in Weenies, alongside the confidence gained to really shine in public performances, starring in their own films, devising their own work and much, much more.

Next Taster Day: 20th April 2024

We ask applicants to take part in a taster day before they join the school. This ensures we are the right school for your child. Taster students will join the school for the whole day and will attend classes with enrolled students and other taster day students. Teachers will ensure that taster students are supported and feel well looked after. Once the taster day is complete, students can then decide if they would like to join for the full term.

 If you are unable to make our Taster Day date above, please get in touch and we’ll arrange an alternative for you.

Although term has already begun, you can contact us as places may still be available before the next taster day in certain classes. Simply fill in our easy application form to apply or email hello@afperformingarts.com.

My daughter has been with the Weenies for the last 2 years and has loved it! She started out quite shy but has really developed her self-confidence thanks to the brilliant classes. There is dance, singing and role play and (in normal times) an end of term show of sorts where the parents get to see what the kids have been working on. Valentina will be ‘graduating’ from the Weenies soon and moving up to Anna Fiorentini’s drama school proper and we are very proud. A big thank you to everyone involved!

Weenies has been such a fun and educational activity for my son. It has really helped boost his confidence and he always leaves class with a big smile on his face

Florence really enjoys her time at Anna Fiorentini. Her confidence has grown enormously since starting the weenies classes. Thank you!

My Daughter attended the taster class just before lockdown no.2 and when I collected her she ran out and shouted ‘Mum please can we go again!’ Saturdays cannot come quick enough for her!

Our daughter has loved her classes! Expressing herself and making friends has been a big part! Thank you Weenies.
