Staying Safe

TRANSITION & CRIME AWARENESS WORKSHOP

YEAR 5 & 6 - 30 PUPILS (1 CLASS) PER WORKSHOP

DURATION OF WORKSHOP 60 MINUTES

'Staying Safe' is a unique interactive 60 minute theatre workshop perfect for students about to experience the transition to secondary school. Through dramatic scenes, role play and various exercises the session aims to reduce the chances of young people becoming a victim of crime on the school journey and beyond.

The session encourages awareness of crime, explores human nature "What we want dictates our actions!" and offers practical solutions for young people to implement immediately. We explore pre-emptive tactics and suggest strategies for dealing with an actual crime, whilst promoting caution without inciting unnecessary fear.

Now in its 10th year in Brent Primary Schools, numerous councils and organisations have commissioned this workshop.

Producing high-quality theatre-in-education that engages staff and students is of paramount importance – this mission drives us forward. The cherry on the cake is that when we do such a great job, we receive multiple reviews testifying to that statement.

Every project delivers a different experience to those involved so it rewarding to hear first-hand what our audience took away with them. For some, our projects can be reflective and thought-provoking, for others they can install confidence and ignite passion. Please take a moment to read some reviews from past and present Wizard Theatre clients.

There was lots of good discussion, some very mature points raised after the workshop and reflection on how they would behave or act next year at secondary school, they felt more aware of strategies to protect themselves against potential dangers. The session was fantastic, the children were really engaged and enjoyed it.
