A Day in the Life: 7-11 years

12 September 2020 - 17 October 2020

Our weekly Zoom hosted drama classes for 7 - 11 years return for the autumn term


What Is It?

An online drama and performance skills class over 6 weeks, hosted on Zoom, taking you on a virtual tour of our neighbourhood.

 

Course Content

A Day in the Life will take you on a virtual tour of our neighbourhood. Each week you will meet a new, local, friendly face and find out what they do for a day of the week. You will learn about what they like to cook, eat, listen to and do with their free time, all whilst acting out scenarios from their day as you imagine it.

Get ready to make some new friends and to know your neighbourhood even better, all from the comfort of your own home via Zoom!

A Day in the Life is part of our Activate Your Rebellion season, where we challenge you to embrace your local community and look at how we can action positive change.
