Year 6 and Shakespeare - A Significant Figure from the Past

Year 6 have been learning about a significant individual from the past, the Bard himself; William Shakespeare!

Wombwell Park Street is a member of the Yorkshire and Humberside Shakespeare hub. Each year we focus on one of the bards many plays and engage with creative partners to develop themes. This year the children in Year 6 learnt about the twists and turns of 'A Midsummer Nights Dream'. The children got to grips with the characters and plot brilliantly. They were lucky enough to engage in a workshop with Lucy Burns a visual artist. She supported the children to use collage and print making skills to explore the forest and town of Athens. The work the children produced will form part of an installation, which will be presented in the central library in town. 

What a fantastic opportunity to learn about such a significant individual and the legacy he left to us today!
