Children and parents have been raving about this young man and it’s no mystery why!

Madeleine

Our pure and perfect princess performer. Children and adults fall in love with Madeleine’s elegant and graceful charm in all her shows. This wonderful young girl has a degree in Music from Macquarie University and has been working closely with children over 5 years. Madeleine is very intuitive and animated with her small fans, making sure that her parties are always a total hit! Madeleine is Fairy Floss in her shows and is easily placed as a Disney Princess, Alice in Wonderland or a Mermaid. You will be thrilled with this gifted and loving performer if she attends your next event.

Alice

What a special young lady Alice is! We were so pleased to welcome her to our team as she has so much to offer and so much comes from the heart. Alice is studying for a PhD in Physics at the University of Sydney. She had a very hard choice of pursuing drama and music or science as a higher education pathway. Alice has studied classical ballet from the ages of 4 to 17 so is more than capable to host some gorgeous little ballet parties! Alice attends circus school and finds incredible joy and fulfilment in making and wearing costumes that express her flamboyant personality. Alice is always volunteering for great programmes on offer for children interested in learning about science. When Alice joined Finding Fairyland it seemed very natural as her friends have always considered her a real life pixie.

Katie

Katie is the definition of someone who is completely beautiful on the inside and out. Katie is young but extremely level headed and mature. Katie has completed her studies at Barker College and is now working at full pace within our professional team. Katie has become a popular Tinkerbell at parties as she is the perfect look-alike and has bounds of energy! It’s not hard falling in love with this girl. Katie is dedicated to providing the best performances for children and their families and with this genuine enthusiasm and natural talent she isn’t one to be missed.

We have recently welcomed Katie back to Finding Fairyland after she spent 2.5 months in Ghana, Africa working in a school. Here is part of an email Katie sent to Catherine about her time in Ghana: “I have been in Ghana, West Africa for the past two and a half months teaching in a local school called ‘Prince of Peace’ and living with a host family. The kids at the school are amazing and it is by far the best yet hardest thing I have done in my life so far but I love them all very much even with the the 45 minute walk there and back in unbearable heat! The simplest things amuse them for hours, I would always bring my ipod speakers and watch them dance to Beyonce ‘We Run The World’. We taught them a mix of subjects, including living and non-living, the 5 senses, naming animals and spelling words. They were really getting the hang of it and then I had to leave : (  I also bought them a height chart and it was so sweet to see all of the kids get so excited over their measurements! I hope everything has been going great at Finding Fairyland and I can’t wait to come back and get into my parties and shows!”
