"Our Day Out" - Wed 2nd - Fri 4th November 2011
Featuring the NKTA Performance Class with Yrs 10/11
The play centres on a school trip to Conwy Castle in North Wales.
Mrs Kay teaches a remedial class for illiterate children,
called the "Progress Class". The whole class - along with
Digga and Reilly, the slightly older class bullies who used to be in the
Progress Class - are taken on a coach trip.
At the last minute, the Headmaster commissions Mr Briggs, the authoritarian Deputy Headmaster, to supervise the trip.
Although planned originally as a trip to the castle, they also end up
going to the zoo, beach and fairgrounds. Mrs Kay and her
helpers, Susan and Colin, are all very kind, but have little hope
for the children. Mr Briggs is a stark contrast to Mrs Kay, thinking
that the children are spoilt, don't work hard enough and don't have a chance in life.
