'Stand Up for Shakespeare' Showcase

On Wednesday 6th February we hosted a 'Stand Up for Shakespeare' showcase as part of our three year partnership with The Royal Shakespeare Company and their Learning and Performance Network. The students involved performed a vibrant mixture of Shakespeare's 'greatest hits' accompanied by music and song for added entertainment!

This project has been led by Mrs Hearn and Miss Crutchley as well as Justin Audibert, a creative director from the The Royal Shakespeare Company, who guided the group through their performance, giving them some great tips to help them understand the meaning of Shakespeare's words in a more contemporary context.

This project is in its final stages and will end with a fantastic festival in the summer term which will include some of our local primary schools.

Darwin Dance Company Visit

On Wednesday of last week our Dance department had a visit from undergraduate dance company 'Darwin'. The company have visited us for the past few years bringing with them a innovative and captivating performance. The dancers are all undergraduate students currently studying Dance at Winchester University and allow our students an insight into what it is like to study dance at a higher level of education.

Darwin ran two workshops for our Year 7-9 students before setting up and performing their latest show in our dance studio.
