The academy is run and founded by Sally Walsh, who has over 30 years experience as a professional actress, including the lead in Disney’s The Old Curiosity Shop, as well as roles in Emmerdale, Eastenders, Coronation St and Heartbeat.

Basking Babies
Tuesdays 2.30pm
Hannah’s baby massage and reflexology course is suitable for babies from a few weeks after birth to active crawling. Progressively throughout the course you will learn a comprehensive baby massage routine designed to soothe & relax you and your baby. You will also learn our effective ‘Colic Alleviation & Prevention’ baby massage routine, settling techniques, and our specially designed Baby Reflexology routines for additional techniques to ease and relieve normal baby discomforts.
The classes are relaxed, friendly and informative and run in a ‘home from home’ environment. We always say that babies are in charge in our classes, so you never have to worry if baby wants a feed, nappy change or a sleep at any point. You should just feel free to meet baby’s needs as you wish.
Music Lessons
Mondays and Thursdays after school
Michael and the Team are our experienced music teachers providing brilliant, fun but focussed music lessons to children in Year 2 and above twice a week after school. Tried and tested by Casta’s (who owns The Playhub) daughter, they’re hugely popular with local children of all abilities, with the option to take exams from a range of boards, or to play for fun.
