Aimhigher
"Year 8 were given a real treat on Thursday the 12th of May when local Theatre Company, Gibber delivered their version of 'Why Care?'. The presentation was fantastic, well presented, full of humour, energetic, fast pacing and totally involved the students. They used popular TV shows such as ' I'm a Celebrity get me out of here', 'Family Fortunes' and even Lady Gaga made an appearance to get their message across that there is all types of careers to consider in the NHS and at the same time the value of working hard at school in order to gain qualifications to proceed to Higher Education. Year 8 were all buzzing about it and they all wanted to take part in the workshop. The feedback from the workshop was also excellent, This definitely brighten up our day and well done to the three superb actors who totally captivated Year 8 and gave them a lot to think about. Many thanks to 'Aimhigher' who funded this Drama presentation."
