Pupils from Evelyn CP Primary School, Prescot where paid a visit from Magic Skills For Schools, who use magic as an aid to mathematics.
Magician Robert Newgrosh, said: “Magic Skills For Schools boosts confidence, self-esteem and social skills, and also helps to develop manual dexterity, co-ordination, memory, presentation, reasoning, numeracy and verbal skills.
“Magic increases a child’s self-belief because now they can do something that’s really amazing, and this has the potential to change their whole outlook.”
At the end of the programme the children perform a show for classmates and parents, further boosting their confidence and self-esteem. The show provides a tangible end-result plus a real sense of achievement.
