Thanks so much! Miss Emma is amazing and we really applaud you all for getting so many lovely online classes up and running so well and so quickly!
Thank you very much for the amazing classes we enjoyed at CTA and the immediate online classes. I have shared your virtual workshops with friends outside London and it’s been very useful with the lockdown.
Just to say a big thank you to all the team at CTA – really glad that Roseanna has the normal routine of Miss Emma’s classes to look forward to during these difficult times.
Just wanted to say an enormous thank you to Maddie for the Wicked workshop this morning…she’s been a bit down because of missing school, and this cheered her right up and left her truly energised!
Thanks so much for the absolutely brilliant way you’re all handling this bizarre situation. CTA has been so agile and responsive to the change – incredible. And we’re so happy to continue to support you!
It was wonderful. Aggy’s little face lit up when she saw Miss Emma. In times of flux children look for pillars…Miss Emma (and CTA) is a pillar.
Thank you everyone for making this happen. I know there is such a lot of effort that goes into making a success of all this! You are definitely heroes and we thank you.
That was fantastic! Please pass on BIG THANKS to Miss Emma. So lovely to see her, and get a little bit of normality back.
