Description
Drama: It is required by the AQA exam board that students attend a theatrical performance for the final section of their written paper on live theatre. We are excited to be taking the students to watch the National Theatre’s production of War Horse.
History: During the Autumn Term of Year 9, students will be studying World War One. We will consider the causes, progression and some of the battles of the War, as well as the consequences on Europe. War Horse gives a fantastic overview of several aspects of the war: the progression of fighting techniques, how animals were used, as well as the emotional and physical impact of the war on soldiers. We are so pleased that War Horse is coming to the Mayflower in October as it links brilliantly with our topic in History and we’re excited to join with GCSE Drama to offer it as a trip to Year 9 students.
Date: Thursday 17th October, 2pm
Show: War Horse – Mayflower Theatre
Collection: Students to be taken by minibus from school, collected by parents at 5pm from theatre
Cost: The cost of this trip is £23.50.
Clothing: Students are required to wear their usual school uniform for this trip.
