Reveal Theatre’s experienced “Game On” practitioners deliver interactive “Game On” workshops encompassing the following themes:-
- Establish a safe secure space based on strong rules where children and young people can feel free to share their concerns, worries and experiences connected to the issues surrounding race and religion
- Combat dangerous and extreme views and beliefs that can divide communities and investigate how cohesion is the foundation of the values of equality
- Game On explores the skills that young people themselves need to work together which includes exploring the “characters” in a community who don’t work together because of race and religion.
- By listening and exploring to young people’s stories, through the universal themes and values of professional theatre, drama and sport, they can then learn to promote a city and community where everyone plays a part no matter their race, culture or religion.
The “Game On” Programme extends throughout the academic year commencing in the Autumn Term and culminating during the following Summer Term. Reveal’s Director, Julia Barton works closely with each of the schools to ensure that the programme fits within the school’s curriculum and time. Also Julia will ensure that if any issues, arising from the work, that the school is fully aware of how problems can be resolved. Specifically how children and young people can be supported, by our Partners, if found to be vulnerable to views, beliefs and opinions that are considered to be contrary to issues around Safeguarding Children .
The Game On Programme is supported by a multi-agency approach through Reveal’s Partners. |
