LO1: Activity 3

Brief

The Henley festival would like to commission you to go into one of the 10 ‘Henley Hub’ participating schools or community groups across the region and document the 4 Autumn Term educational workshops for the Tree of Light programme.

The workshops will take place between early October and end of November 2011:

·         Session one will be an  ‘introduction to trees’ by a tree scientist

·         Sessions 2-4 will be creative workshops where students will be able to tell their ‘tree story’  through either physical theatre, film & photography or creative writing.

You will be required to document and report on every session. It is up to you how you document the workshops but it must be creative and informative. The end product could take the form of a video or photographic or written documentation to include a narrative describing the content of the sessions in line with the Tree of Light Evaluation Scrapbook. It could also be in the form of a press release, piece of promotional literature or web page. Your documentary may be published on the Tree of Light website, Henley Festival website or in local/regional press.

Final Deadline for workshop documentation:  Monday 5^th December 2011

Interim deadlines: After each session you must email Mandy Beard with an update on the event and a brief outline on how you documented the workshops. (You must be willing to adapt your work accordingly)

Budget: We have no budget for this project and therefore you must use your imagination and college equipment to create and document the workshops to the best of your ability without any funds.
