Led by a professional actor-facilitator
Science Week, World Environment Day, PSHE
Delivered in your school hall

Planet Protectors assemble! Explore the challenges facing our planet in our interactive drama workshop for Years 1 to 6

Ignite your children’s imaginations with Our World, Our Future, an unforgettable cross-curricular workshop for Years 1 – 6 that focuses on making real positive change for our planet.

Combining science, geography, poetry, and drama, the class-by-class sessions brings the topic of climate change to life through interactive drama activities that empower children to take ownership of their part in the world.

Led by a professional actor, children become Planet Protectors, tackling real-world environmental challenges and discovering how they can make a difference together. They’ll deepen their knowledge of the topic while building skills in critical thinking, oracy, creativity, and teamwork.

Available year-round, the workshop is particularly popular during Science Week (8 - 16 Mar 2025) and World Environment Day (5 June 2025).

’Drama and theatre are a brilliant way of reflecting society back to itself and that’s what we’re trying to do. The difficult balance is to talk about a really serious problem and for children not to feel downhearted by it, but instead to feel invigorated and that they are able to take part in making a more positive future for themselves.Workshop creator, Abigail Rosser
