While the play will be beneficial to most, the story of Dan’s death could trigger powerful emotions and trauma in some learners. Please speak to your guidance teacher or Mrs Hamilton if you would prefer not to attend.

Pupils with surnames A to L will attend during periods 1 & 2. You should register at tutor and then proceed to the Assembly Hall. You MUST sit in the allocated area for your class, so that we can take registers accurately.
