Beyond The Rainbow Performing Arts Academy
"My daughter has been with Beyond the Rainbow for over a year now and her 2 younger brothers have followed her! Rachel and her team of teachers work so hard each week to get the very best out of each individual child. It's been amazing to see my children's confidence grow each week as they learn something new to show me! They have 3 lessons throughout the morning (tap is definitely a firm favourite!) But alongside the lessons, Rachel works hard to develop friendships and connections between the children so when they are performing they can support each other. This is a unique musical theatre group where the focus is on celebrating each child and their development. The scripts for the shows are written by the teachers and allow for the children to be in the spotlight as individuals as well as part of the whole group. Thank you BtR for showing such care and encouragement to my children!"
