SPLEEPING BEAUTY OR NOT – XXXI L’escola al teatre CICLE MITJÀ I SUPERIOR

admin17/03/24  

Last Tuesday, we had the opportunity to go to L’Espluga de Francolí and enjoy the musical play “SLEEPING BEAUTY OR NOT” in English.

We delved into the transformation of the original tale of Sleeping Beauty, transforming it into a different version.

Princess Aurora is lying asleep due to an evil spell. Suddenly, her “blue prince” appears, ready to awaken her with a kiss, but… -No! What did you think? The story is in our hands, and in Aurora’s hands, who will review the story and modify everything that she believes violates her rights.

In this updated version of Sleeping Beauty we propose to journey through the original story, stopping to reflect on established clichés, discovering that we can change them and learning to be more critical: Why must the princess wait to be rescued by a prince? Can we kiss someone who is unconscious? Should we follow traditions if we find them unfair?

We were able to work on gender stereotypes while simultaneously enjoying an interactive and dynamic show.

El dimarts dia 12, vam tenir l’oportunitat d’anar a l’Espluga de Francolí i poder gaudir del musical i obra de teatre “SLEEPING BEAUTY OR NOT” en llengua anglesa.

Ens vam endinsar en la transformació del conte original de la Bella Dorment transformant-lo en una visió diferent i actual.

La princesa Aurora està estirada, adormida, a causa d’un encanteri malvat. De sobte, apareix el seu “príncep blau”, disposat a despertar-la amb un petó, però … -No! Què t’has pensat? La història està a les nostres mans, i a les mans de l’Aurora, que revisarà el conte i modificarà tot allò que ella creu que vulnera els seus drets.

En aquesta actualització de la Bella Dorment ens proposem viatjar per la història original, aturant-nos per reflexionar sobre els clixés establerts, descobrir que podem canviar-los i aprendre a ser més crítics: per què la princesa ha d’esperar a ser rescatada per un príncep? Podem fer petons a algú que està inconscient? Cal seguir les tradicions si les trobem injustes?

Hem pogut treballar estereotips de gènere i a la vegada gaudir d’un espectacle interactiu i dinàmic.

 

 

SCHOOL TRIP: ROBIN HOOD PLAY & LIBRARY & SECONDARY SCHOOL

admin06/03/23  

On the 15th March, our students from Middle Cycle and Upper level went to Montblanc to see the “ROBIN HOOD” play and to visit the County Library  “Conangla i Fontanilles” & “Martí l’Humà” Secondary School.

You know what, England has a problem: the police commissioner of Nottingham, the rich and stingy tax collector. Our brave hero, Robin Hood, is convinced that he is the only one who can save the country. With bow, arrows and sword, fight heroically in the name of justice. He is brave. He’s not afraid.

Have you Ever Wondered …

  • What can you discover at the library?
  • Do libraries have more than books?
  • How well do you know your local library?

It’s true! Our county library is filled with exciting adventures and other worlds waiting to be explored. And guess what? They’re not all contained within books. You might be surprised to learn about all the other resources a library has to offer.

Do British people say secondary school?

Officially, it is called secondary school, in the UK. That said, many people in the UK will refer to it as “high school”. It is technically an Americanism, but also used in the official names of many secondary schools throughout the country.

Our students really enjoyed doing these amazing activities and taking an active part in all of them.
