Primary Schools

At Round Midnight we can offer a number of fantastic workshops for Primary schools. Whether your school is looking to start a drama club or a choir, or you simply want help with your Christmas play, Round Midnight can run these sessions to benefit your pupils and enrich their performance skills.

We also offer curriculum based workshops and TIE performances that are hugely advantageous to young people. Through the use of drama and creative arts we can bring the classroom to life in all aspects of primary learning, and our interactive TIE pieces will interest and excite pupils whilst teaching them vital life skills.

Below are just some of the projects that your pupils could benefit from:

Programmes

Mental Maths
This project looks at teaching maths to pupils in a new and exciting way. Through the use of drama and music pupils will learn about shapes, times tables, currency, time, addition, subtraction and multiplication. These sessions are designed so that the young people can build their confidence in maths and develop their vital day to day arithmetic skills.

Loving Literacy
Our Loving Literacy workshops are a fun and easy way to increase pupils’ reading and writing skills. The young people will benefit from drama activities and games based on advancing their grammar, punctuation, spelling, reading comprehension and the ability to use complete and structured sentences.

Seriously Super Science
Whether your pupils are looking at physics, biology or chemistry we offer fun and exciting workshops to increase their knowledge and understanding. These sessions are designed to fit in with your current curriculum and advance the methods in which your children find interesting, relevant and beneficial to their learning.

The Mystery of History
Whatever historical topic your school is focusing on, using our creative practice we can bring your history lessons to life. Through drama and games your pupils can explore and experience subjects such as the Victorians, the Tudors, the Ancient Egyptians and the Romans etc.

Community Cohesion
This project aims to raise awareness, reinforce cultural understanding and promotes community spirit. It can take the form of film, theatre or a combination of mixed media. Working with your students we will research, devise and create a piece of theatre/film that represents the local community. We can also work with local secondary schools, aiding the transition process for your pupils.

TIE

Be Safe, Play Safe = Playing safe in School Holidays
A show that explores the problems young children face during their school holidays when trying to keep themselves occupied. Issues around safety, peer pressure, gang confrontations, alcohol and smoking and vandalism are all addressed within this piece.

Raw Talent Youth Theatre

Raw Talent youth theatre is the sister company of Round Midnight Ltd. Raw Talent was established in 1996 and has been producing original comedy performances ever since. Raw Talent works differently to other youth theatres as it ensures that every member of the cast has their chance to shine. The shows are devised by the young people, giving them ownership over their work and the opportunity to see their ideas come to life. All of the scripts are original and written by professional, comedy writers enabling the students to continually perform new and original material. If you would like to hear more, please follow the web link: www.rawtalent.co.uk

All of these projects are available for your Primary School and are adaptable for years one to six. Round Midnight can deliver workshops and activities for any time scale, whether it is a one hour lesson, an entire day or a weekly session over a term. We can also offer a show back presentation to parents and/or fellow pupils to share what they have learnt and to build their confidence further in that area. We offer CPD on all of our courses.
