For Book Week in Schools!
Virtual Performance
Due to the governments recommendations that schools remain closed, Perform Education will be going VIRTUAL!
Our performances are captured live-on-film with multi-cameras and in high definition, meaning everyone will be watching from the best seat in the house. It also includes interactive segments such as quizzes, activities, physical challenges and guided discussions. This allows students to dig deep into the key learning point while being active, engaged and having fun!
Hosting a Perform Education Virtual Incursion means your whole school can be involved whether having a large group viewing, classroom by classroom sessions, or watching individually from home.
Celebrating the best New Zealand Children's books of 2020!
Excerpts from our past Book Week in Schools production:
For 2020 we are delighted to present our Live-On-Film Virtual Incursion
AND THE WINNER IS...
Jonno has a solid gold ambition – to be crowned champion of something. Anything! The challenge is to find out what exactly he may be able to shine at. To complicate matters, every time he thinks he has the answer Claire is there challenging him! There is a story to be told but the question is who is going to get to tell it? Get ready to cheer, sing, dance and get involved as these characters go head to head with the audience towards the moment we hear the announcement ‘And The Winner Is…’
And The Winner Is… combines a love of reading and books with a celebration of diversity and competition! Watch a selection of the best New Zealand Children’s Books come to life, encouraging students to engage with reading in an active and energetic manner and reinforcing the idea of inclusiveness and celebration of endeavour rather than competitive results.
LEARNING AREAS: English, The Arts (Dance, Drama, Music), Health and Physical Education
THEMES: Self Worth, Managing Success and Challenges, Personal Strengths, Celebrity Culture, Books, and Reading.

This was the first time I had taken part in this show. I thought it was absolutely fantastic, to the point, exciting and fun! Caters to all ages and the interaction is awesome.
Papatoetoe Central Primary School, Auckland, 2019
What a fabulous interactive show! Our students could relate to the books as I have had them on display in the school library for the last couple of weeks. The theme was very relevant and our actors Sam and Lydia were amazing.
Hobsonville School, Auckland, 2019
One of the best shows I have seen....and I've seen a lot. Easy clear message, nice connections to the books, relevant and enjoyable.
Redwood School, Wellington, 2019
