One Day Creative Education

We're up bright and early this morning to do something a little bit different ⏰ 💧

Clem and Louise have headed to rural Northumberland for a special project: sharing the importance of water saving with thousands of local primary-aged children. With a focus on agricultural industry and environmental understanding, we are extremely proud to be part of this one-day event and connect with local pupils.

Teaching water conservation in the rain? That's what we call hands-on learning! ☔😄

Hooray! A lovely (albeit slightly delayed) to finish the week AND kick off the school break ☀️ Enjoy the sunshine and see you on the other side for the final half term of the year 😱

If you'd like to give your topic a grand finale and turn end-of-term into a celebration, please get in touch. We travel to schools all over the country and would love to pay you a visit this summer.

Our mission for today's Early Islamic Civilisation workshop in Leeds was two-fold:

🔥 Ignite the topic! 🔥 Children were right at the start of the unit, so they needed a captivating introduction to the ancient civilisation of Mesopotamia, memorable facts galore (did you know Mesopotamia translates to 'between rivers'?) and some juicy development ideas to keep the discovery flowing throughout term...

AND

🤪 Let loose! 🤪 This Year 6 class had sat their SATs the week before. This workshop helped to transition the children away from revision with plenty of educational games, interactivity and pressure-off showbacks to celebrate all this new learning.

Summer Term workshops are a wonderful way to keep pupils' energy up as you launch new topics, or consolidate learning from the year so far. If the lovely British weather is playing ball, we can even take the action outside ☀️ Get in touch to request your dates and big thanks to our facilitator Louise for leading today.

🌍 Sir David Attenborough turns 100 🎉 He has spent a lifetime helping us fall in love with our planet. And if we've learned anything from him, it's that children who connect with the natural world grow up to care for it.

Right now, the children in our schools are the generation that will decide what happens next. Our climate change workshop, Only One Earth, puts that responsibility into context in a way that feels empowering, not overwhelming for KS1 and KS2 pupils. We talk about the science, the choices and, most importantly, what they can do to help.

Happy 100th birthday, Sir David. We hope you'd approve 🌿

A celebration of the career of Sir David Attenborough on his 100th birthday in video, audio and pictures.

Everybody, meet George 👋🎩🔥

You may recognise George as one of our superstar facilitators. He’s the first in our new 💥Facilitator Spotlight 💥 series, shining a light on the talents, passions and insights of our incredible team. So… what’s George up to when he’s not inspiring your pupils in school? Browse our slideshow and read the full captions below.

🎊 I am currently touring my solo storytelling show 'Tales for an Unruly Audience' with my company theatre across the south of England. It's a show that I love performing. It combines storytelling and audience participation in a way that encourages the audience to be mischievous. We have 20 confetti cannons that we give to audience members and they shoot me with them.

🤡 I have always loved entertaining and making people laugh. I was the class clown at school. Thankfully I had teachers and mentors who were encouraging and signposted me to the local youth theatre, Forest Forge Theatre Company, where I was able to really flourish.

💪 Things I’m proud of:

1. Graduating from drama school during the height of the pandemic and building a successful career over the next 6 years
2. Travel to Poland, Norway, Greece, Denmark and Italy with work, working with exceptional collaborators and theatre companies
3. Self-Producing ‘Tales from an Unruly Audience’, which since starting in 2020 has receive 5-star reviews, award nominations and toured both the UK and internationally
4. Making 20 reusable confetti cannons from scratch to use in performances

🏫 To me, teaching and performing are not much different. They both require improvisation, both need you to ‘know the lines’, and for both you need to be able to stand in front of an audience of people (large or small) and capture their imagination. I would say playfulness and empathy are both hugely important.

⬆️ How would pupils describe me? Tall
