Opportunities For All

We work with children in and out of the classroom to help develop key skills, from literacy and communication to confidence and self-expression.

The following opportunities are aimed at schools that would not otherwise have the resources to access our creative opportunities for their pupils.

Click on the scheme to find out more and how to get involved. 

Freefalling

Polka’s free youth theatre is for children aged 9 – 11 who are experiencing challenging circumstances at school or at home. Participants build confidence while learning theatre skills and techniques.
