Florida is very much high up on most people’s bucket list, mainly due to the lure of the magical Walt Disney World however I can tell you that there is much more to Florida than Mickey Mouse! So, this year we thought right let’s do this, let’s take our boys away to Orlando. Having been lucky enough to have visited before, we wanted to explore more of what Florida had to offer. We flew to Orlando with Virgin Atlantic; it was a comfortable smooth flight. On-board entertainment kept the kids happy and with the many film choices we, were happy too. We spent our first week doing all things Disney, it was, as expected, magical family fun, although very exhausting!! Having walked an average of nine miles a day through crowds in a very hot and humid Walt Disney World, we were ready for more ‘less exhausting’ fun, how wrong we were! Our second week was spent exploring the city of Kissimmee, known as the Vacation Home Capital of the World, and located only 10 minutes from Disney’s theme parks. Whilst in Kissimmee, we learnt how vast and varied, Florida’s wildlife is. The state has 44 species of snake! I found that out shortly before we left, thankfully! The most famous resident is of course, the gator, in fact there are 2.5 million of them roaming around. Where better to get up close and personal to a gator than the ‘alligator capital of the world’ Gatorland. On arrival our first stop was for some gator feeding. My kids absolutely loved feeding the young alligators some fish on a line. The gators jumped up and tore fish straight off with their powerful jaws! Shortly after we watched the Gator Jumperaroo show whereby the handlers fed the 8ft alligators with whole chickens. It was fun with laughter, met with mighty gators jumping high and snapping the chicken off the ropes. The fun didn’t end there, we meet a giant 300lb Galapagos tortoise named Lucy. She was a gentle giant; it was a wonderful experience to be able to feed her. There are numerous animal encounters available including the opportunity to hold a gator or a snake. But it’s not just about the animals, there are some exhilarating experiences such as zip-lining across the alligators on the Screaming Gator Zip Line; an off-road experience with the new Stormin Gator off road adventure and when you are all done with that, your little ones can cool off in the Gator Gully Splash Zone. Our next stop was to explore the new Margaritaville Resort Orlando in Kissimmee, newly opened this year. Although we were not fortunate enough to stay at the resort, we were fortunate enough to spend a day at the resorts water park Island H20 Live! This is the most technically advanced water park in Florida and by far the most unique water park we have ever visited. On arrival we were all given a smart band to link via the app on our smart phones. With these we were able to use the three sections: ‘Make my day’, where you can select music play-lists, your favourite colours, check wait times etc, ‘Family and friends’ section, this allowed for you to link with your family and friends, so that you find them and meet up throughout your visit. In this section you can also set parental controls and the Parks Perks section you can view what you can do to earn park perks and keep track of how many you have. While my sons enjoyed the thrills of the twenty water rides on offer, interactive games and experiences. However, for me (who is not so technically advanced) my favourite bit was relaxing on the lazy river. We found the whole day completely exhilarating with so much to offer, plenty of sunbeds available but if you wanted a touch of luxury there are cabanas available to hire! We were now nearing the end of our holiday, time for one last day trip. For something entirely different we booked ourselves on an hour-long airboat ride with ‘Wild Florida’. Based on Lake Cypress at the head of the Everglades stands a renovated property, that feels like you are in the middle of nowhere. On site you can visit the gator park, animal shows and even have an animal encounter with Guy the sloth. The highlight of the day was certainly the airboat ride, our Captain welcomed us on board and gave us a quick safety brief. Ear mufflers on and we were away, zipping through the reeds, across the waters. We encountered lots of wildlife, our Captain was very knowledgeable answering all our questions. Finally, after about 10 minutes we had our first sighting of an alligator, shortly after our Captain took us to see an alligator’s nest. We were fortunate to see several alligators including one who was more than happy to swim alongside us until he disappeared into the reeds. This experience was by far our best!

A - Z Children’s Activities Shirley Principal awarded Stagecoach Franchisee of the Year.

Jigsaw Performing Arts Schools

A local businesswoman has scooped a prestigious international business award, being recognised for her contribution to the Stagecoach Performing Arts network of schools.

SCHOOLS IN:

Sutton Mitcham Wimbledon

Kim Findlay, Principal of Stagecoach Performing Arts Shirley, was awarded the Franchisee of the Year Award at the recent annual Stagecoach Conference, held at Whittlebury Hall in Towcester. She was credited for the success of the school, which she took over in 2015.

T: 020 8688 3409 ✴ ✴ ✴

A former actor and dancer, Kim has grown Stagecoach Shirley from operating just a handful of schools to running four Early Stages classes (for children aged four to six), three Main Stages (for six to 18 year-olds) and an additional Further Stages for young people who wish to continue their immersion in the performing arts after they have left school. This retention of students is one of the reasons Kim has been honoured, beating over 300 other Franchises across the world to the award, as well as being credited for being on track to double the size of the business in five years. Amongst the school’s other successes, the students have participated in West End performances at the Shaftesbury Theatre and Her Majesty's Theatre. They were also part of a world record set for the largest number of simultaneous performances of one show when the Stagecoach network put on Disney's Beauty and the Beast in multiple locations across the world in July 2018. Having moved to London 14 years ago from New Zealand, where she also taught dance and choreographed, Kim has turned a childhood passion for performance into a successful business. She has performed from a young age and continues to work with local amateur production companies, primarily choreographing for musicals. She choreographed a production of The Drowsy Chaperone at the 2014 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, which received high praise from the show’s writer, Lisa Lambert. Kim said, “I am privileged to work with a great team of teachers at Stagecoach Shirley who are really dedicated to the students, who in turn are passionate about our classes. This award is testament to all their hard work and we look forward to building on our successes to date. As we embark on the new school year, we have an exciting programme lined up for the students, including shows for all our Stages – Early, Main and Further classes – so that the children can have the chance to perform on the big stage. We’ll also be getting ready for the students to again perform at Her Majesty’s Theatre next year, as the culmination of the academic year.” Stagecoach Performing Arts Shirley is part of a network of more than 1800 extra-curricular Performing Arts Schools worldwide. Stagecoach aims to make a difference in its students lives by teaching Creative Courage for Life and many children have gone on to study and work in Performing Arts from blockbuster films to countless roles in local theatre productions. Early Stages classes are available for children aged four to six and Main Stages classes take place for six to 18 year olds every weekend during term time.
