Mrs Wright and Miss Horsley took Year 10 drama students on a fantastic trip to York Theatre Royal to experience life behind the red curtains. Students were treated to a backstage tour where they quizzed industry experts on all things performance, programming and productions. Barlby students explored everywhere from the mirrors of the dressing rooms to the secrets of the trapdoors under the stage.
We were also fortunate enough to have an acting workshop with Julian Ollive, Education Associate at the theatre, where we experimented with physical theatre and explored how we can communicate emotions to audiences without words. We hope that our drama students have left the trip inspired and excited about their upcoming performances!
Look at the goodies that staff (and one of my Year 9s!) have donated to Black Cat Rescue in North Duffield! Still time to contribute if you want to add to the food appeal! @Barlby_High pic.twitter.com/Mmjm…
Well done to all students involved in the 1st Peer Reading session today. It was lovely to see our YR10 mentors meet their YR7 readers, getting to know each other, helping to choose books & by the end of the session the group had read 98 pages. @Barlby_English @Barlby_High pic.twitter.com/as0V…

Reading2dogs @selbylibrary. A small group of students had a fantastic afternoon with Dora and everyone at Selby library as part of the Reading2dogs scheme. Plenty of time to explore all that the library has to offer. @Barlby_High @Barlby_English pic.twitter.com/ucng…
