Brentwood performing arts students Rosie and Mason tell us about their Jigsaw Journey!

Meet Rosie!

“My name’s Rosie, I’m eight and almost nine. I’ve been at Jigsaw for a year now, acting and singing and dancing, it is really cool! I like drama the most. My teachers are really fun and amazing. And they teach us a lot! Sometimes I find dancing hard, for example, a couple of months ago, I didn’t know how to do the box step moves then my teacher Yas showed me step by step until I got it right.

Jigsaw is different from normal school, we don’t have strict teachers and don’t do English and Maths and all that. We do subjects I like and the people in the group are really fun to talk to. When I first got to Jigsaw, I was in the three to four years class and I didn’t know anybody. It was just me, Mason and Dyshamay. And, then I made friends really quickly.

I honestly think that my favourite thing about Jigsaw is having all my friends around me. My favourite times are when everyone’s there, everything’s going on and you can just have fun with your friends!” – Rosie, Jigsaw student

Meet Mason!

“I’m Mason. I’m ten, almost eleven, and I joined Jigsaw when I was nine. I like Jigsaw because it’s a way to express yourself and show off all your talents. I find Jigsaw really fun and the classes give you lots of skills. You can have your best times learning here and the teachers will always help you if you need help.

Drama is my favourite subject, I really love acting. Jigsaw and my love for drama is the whole reason I’ve been on TV and I’ve auditioned for shows and almost got it. I also love reading scripts, and doing the shows. My favourite show that we performed at Jigsaw was Legally Blonde.

Any challenges, the teachers will help you overcome them. Even sometimes if you really don’t get the material and you ask for help, even at break time, they will talk to you and show you how to do it. They make sure you’re fully confident with what you’re doing.

I still remember the first time I came here. I came to Jigsaw not being that sure if I was going to like it. After I came here and I met all the people, it’s been really easy. It can be scary joining somewhere new but Jigsaw is the same at every school, the teachers and games, so you sort of know what to expect. It’s amazing!” – Mason, Jigsaw student
