| GCSE Expressive Arts Final |
The Expressive Arts Class.
The Year 9 GCSE Expressive Arts class at Barry Comprehensive School performed their examination pieces to an open audience recently.
The class had been asked to create an original piece of work, using Drama & Dance, based on either the painting ‘Piccador’ by Picasso or on the historical issue of the Irish Potato Famine for their examination.
The performances were very successful and ranged from issues of cruelty to animals, the plight of farming communities, a school history lesson, and the real reason behind Picasso’s painting!
The class, which consists of 19 boys aged 13 – 14, have been working towards completing a GCSE two years earlier than normal and in only one year rather than the usual two years.
The Drama Department at Barry Comprehensive, Karen Walters, Audra Ellis and Ian Piekielniak couldn’t be happier with the group as they have all worked extremely hard. The boys have given up a great deal of their own time, break-times, lunch-times and after school to ensure a high standard of work and are sure to do extremely well. barrycompdotcom | two beta web design: MG 06/03
