Drama therapy has been enjoyed at Wootey Infant School in Alton thanks to a grant from local East Hampshire district councillor Stephen Dolan.

Flip Theatre Workshop Ltd used the grant to hold drama-based resilience workshops for pupils and teachers to improve their mental health.

Children took part in drama games and role-playing with professional actors which developed their emotional intelligence and allowed them to practise speaking confidently. Teachers could see pupils from a different perspective and gain an insight into how they felt and any issues they faced.
