Last week, the Year 4 boys have been taking part in their ‘Play in a Week’-Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. This has been a drama workshop, an extension of their Performing Arts lessons, which has given the boys an opportunity to experiment with drama scripts, freeze frames and various other drama tools on our fabulous Bridge House Theatre stage.

This was filmed on Friday, so that parents are able to see what the boys have achieved in just one week! Most of the ideas have come from the boys themselves, giving them far more input than would be usual with our annual Year 4 Musical. Once the film has been edited and put together, the link will be sent out to parents towards the end of the second half of the summer term.

We have all very much enjoyed the chance to ‘perform’ and do something creative outside of the normal classroom curriculum. Much fun has been had by us all.
Next week, it will be the turn of the Year 6 boys to embark on their drama project, where they too will get the opportunity to experiment and perform on the stage of the Bridge House Theatre. Again, this will be filmed and the link sent out to parents towards the end of the summer term.
