The T.H.U.M.B show, however, is just the tip of the T.H.U.M.B program iceberg.
It's more than a hilarious magic and juggling show.
It does more than tell kids they CAN 'make a difference'.
It's more than an excellent way for principals to fulfil a
growing parental expectation that schools
provide children with a moral compass.
The T.H.U.M.B show is just the first step of the unique T.H.U.M.B program that gives no – strings – attached money to schools to further values education.
We give your school a platform for authentic teaching and learning which you tailor to your school's specific needs. Together we prepare today's students to be tomorrow's architects of social change.
T.H.U.M.B is about re-empowering kids with RESPONSIBILITY!
And this is the point; they WILL make a difference because we give them the opportunity. Where other school shows leave a message and run, we give you the means to start a wonderful learning and teaching experience.
This is character education that will do more than enhance academic achievement and behaviour standards at your school. This can be a life changing experience for your students.
There are 4 individual T.H.U.M.B shows
that your school can experience.
They're all hugely entertaining variety shows featuring magic, juggling, ventriloquism, mind reading, escape acts, music, sound effects, hilarity and loads of audience participation.
But remember, the shows are just the tip of the T.H.U.M.B iceberg. The shows alone are invaluable but we give you SO much more...
The T.H.U.M.B
4 Step Program:
1. It begins when the hilarious T.H.U.M.B show visits your school and the students learn the 'Rule of T.H.U.M.B'.
2.Enthused with a new measure of their own potential the students create a school project where they think they can make a difference.
3. The T.H.U.M.B program gives your school 'project ignition' money to get their idea off the whiteboard and into the real world.
4. Schools log their project via a website which automatically enters them into the T.H.U.M.B awards. The winning school gets $5000.
