Charity Day at Jigsaw Potters Bar and Barnet!

What do you get when you mix superheroes, chocolate cake, 101 Dalmatians, and a whole bunch of big-hearted performers? One amazing day of fundraising at Jigsaw Potters Bar and Barnet, all in support of Children with Cancer UK!

Our recent charity day fundraiser was packed with fun, laughter, and a whole lot of dressing up. Our students and staff arrived in full costume, ready to raise money and make memories.

The theme?

Come as your favourite character, and WOW, did our students deliver!

We had everything from Disney royalty and comic book heroes to wizards, animals, and everything in between.

Not to be outshone, our brilliant staff got fully involved too. Manager Megan turned heads as a fabulously over-the-top Cruella de Vil, while the rest of the team transformed into her loyal (and very spotty) 101 Dalmatians. The kids LOVED it and the photo ops were absolutely priceless.

Of course, no Jigsaw event  at Jigsaw Potters Bar and Barnet would be complete without a sweet treat or two! During break time, students were treated to a cake sale to help boost fundraising efforts. A massive thank you to the generous parent who donated a BIGGGG chocolate cake, yes, it deserves all those Gs! It didn’t last long, but every slice helped raise money for a brilliant cause.

Mia Rogers Shines in Matilda the Musical: Theatre Trip!

A Magical Day Out: Jigsaw Performing Arts Barnet & Potters Bar See Mia Rogers Shine in Matilda the Musical!

Our brilliant Megan, who is the franchisee and owner of Jigsaw Performing Arts Barnet, Jigsaw High Barnet and Potters Bar, organised an unforgettable experience. 60 members of our Jigsaw family, staff, teachers, parents and students, visited the West End to experience Matilda the Musical live on stage.

The special occasion was to support one of Jigsaw Barnet’s very own student stars, Mia Rogers, who is currently starring as Matilda in this incredible production.

Mia attended Jigsaw Performing Arts Weekend Classes at Jigsaw Barnet on Saturday Afternoons. Now Mia Rogers takes to the stage as Matilda!

Megan shared that one of the most touching moments of the day was witnessing the reactions of the students. Especially Mia’s Jigsaw friends from Jigsaw Barnet. They have been alongside her every step of the way. Watching their faces light up as they saw Mia perform was truly magical. Many were moved to tears, overwhelmed with pride and awe.

This experience was more than just a theatre outing. It was a celebration of friendship, dedication, and the power of performing arts to inspire. We are forever proud of Mia and all our students who continue to shine both on and off the stage.

Thank you to everyone who joined us on this special day. Here’s to many more magical moments with Jigsaw Performing Arts!

This year, Jigsaw Barnet proudly invited our fellow Jigsaw schools from Potters Bar, Finchley, and Hendon to join the celebration. The East Barnet Festival creates a wonderful opportunity for students from all four Jigsaw schools to perform to an audience.

The highlight of the afternoon was a heartwarming grand finale, where we brought all the Jigsaw schaools together on stage. Watching our students collaborate, support one another, and perform as one big Jigsaw family was truly special.

A huge thank you to all the parents and families who came out to cheer on our talented performers! Moments like these remind us of the joy and confidence that performing arts bring to our children’s lives.

We’re so proud of every single student who took part and can’t wait to share more exciting performances with you soon!
