Shakespeare Part 2

‘Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears...’

Our second part of Stratford was indeed an interesting start as we had a small amount of snow falling as the children arrived at school ready to depart.

The guides were whisked off to their various posts and the other children were entertained and briefed about the day ahead.

The rain was light but did not dampen the spirits of the children... and even though it might have prevented our guides from going outside into the garden, they improvised and embraced the challenge.

Not only were the guides talking to their peers (friends), but also were talking to other visitors to the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust (the countrymen/ countrywomen).

Americans, Spanish and a variety of other visitors from other cultures were enthralled with the knowledge the children had and imparted with vigour and enthusiasm.

 

All the guides were listened to by the visitors and the comments were well received from the visitors to the adults who accompanied the children.

The children were amazing (as usual) and a credit to themselves and the school.
