St. John's Arts Week

This week I'm being kept on my toes delivering lots of drama workshops at St John's School in Buckhurst Hill as part of their Arts Week programme.

All the children are spending the week taking part in lots of different arts activities and what's even better is that they don't need to do any of their normal lessons!

So far I have worked with a Year 6 group on Improvisation and Devising and also with 2 Year 2 classes on Jack and the Beanstalk. We also had a group of Year 10 students, along with Mr Thorn, perform two of their GCSE devised fairytales at a whole school assembly this morning before take a group of Year 4's for a post-show workshop. Mr Thorn tells me that the students from RVHS were an absolute credit to themselves and the school.

Tomorrow I will be working with a group of Year 5's all day to create a play that we will present at afternoon assembly to the whole school. It is going to be a really busy and probably stressful day but I'm sure it will be worth it and I will let you know how it all goes and hopefully have some pictures to put up too!
