Volunteering for a campaigning organisation allows volunteers to help make things happen for large charities. Find out what the grass roots activists get up to here.

Alas no more drama club :(

Hey people,

Just thought I would post my last blog (at least for now) on the Drama  club yes thats right people no more drama club.  I did think it would be over next week but as majority of the group didn't turn up this week and those that did....3 out of 7 of them are away next week so... (We usually have about 20 kids altogether) ....due to this factor drama club is finishing a week early.

Ah the fun we've had.....Refer to past blogs on the drama group :P

This week has to be one of the best weeks though (only 1 of the best hehe) even though there was a poor turn out. we, well I wouldn't call it dressing up...More just wearing hats.  So after I signed in those who did turn up we had  to act out how you think a person would if they wore a particular hat..So it was teaching our small group of 7  how to change in to character in fun way. 

Basically we partnered up with whoever wore a similar hat which was great fun! And we were at opposite ends of the room and you had to walk (in character remember!) and meet in the middle of the room and do a small scene together depending on your character, which again depended on what hat you wore.  So I was in a pistols at dawn scene (cowboy hat) and was a part of a posh duo (in a smart posh style hat) and we acted out reading the paper.  Which they learnt to do in the warm up when we did ...what shall we call it... follow the leader... You had to act out being a person doing little things and then everyone had to copy you.  So guess it was follow the leader a bit.

I also ran the tuckshop and well lets just say there was no queuing, and yes those lollipops again came to everyones attention unable to be opened lol

I have to say though volunteering with the drama group has been great fun and you never know might do it again
