Local Schools Attend Scientific Theatre Performance at Leweston
Over 250 local school children from Thornford, Buckland Newton, Bishops Caundle, Stalbridge and Hazelbury Bryan Primary Schools enjoyed a science based theatre performance by the well-known schools’ theatre company Kinetic Theatre at Leweston on Wednesday 1st February.
Kinetic’s performance of Robin Hood and the Withering Wood was an interactive and engaging adaptation on the well-known folklore and used the story to explore the 7 conditions for life, chlorophyll, action of U.V light, photosynthesis, plant reproduction, food webs and leaf design. The KS2 audience members had to help Maid Marian save Sherwood forest where the trees and plants were dying. In the end the answer was in the leaves!...
A fantastic way to learn some scientific lessons enjoyed by all the children present! Find out more about the company at http://www.kinetictheatre.co.uk/
"Dear Leweston, thank you for inviting us to your play, it was cool. I enjoyed the part when the badger was doing the worm dance. It was funny when we learned about the food chain and the refreshments were lovely!"
