This term, year 8 drama classes have been working on a Drama Resilience project with professional performers, alongside Headstart and the Blackpool Grand Theatre. Their final performances are to take place this week. The story of the ‘Jungle Book’ has been used as a stimulus for the project. The character Mowgli faced challenging life experiences and choices as a ‘man’ living with animals. Bravery, working with others, friendships and being safe have been some of the themes that we explored.
 

On Tuesday 8th May, 50 pupils went to watch the ‘Jungle Book’ at the Grand Theatre. They loved the show and have gained a lot from the experience. The project process has been filmed and will be shared soon.
