“ I BELIEVE I CAN PLAY PROFESSIONAL CRICKET SAM
I am excited to introduce to you our first programme of Luckley House Masterclasses and Workshops. I look forward to working closely with our feeder schools to share the breadth of expertise afforded to our pupils by our specialist teaching team. Our talented and forward thinking teaching staff would be delighted to work with you to provide tailored sessions to meet the individual requirements of your pupils. This could be in the form of lessons and events hosted at Luckley, or taught within your own school. We will be putting together a full programme of sessions commencing in the autumn term 2021, but would like to start with offering the opportunities detailed within this booklet during the remainder of the summer term: 1. Dance workshop - an energetic 60-minute session with one of our resident dance specialists. 2. History workshop - a fascinating 80-minute lesson, studying under-water archaeology in sunken pirate ships, with Head of History, Mr Phillips. 3. Sports Masterclasses - a full and varied programme of sessions delivered by our excellent sports department. In addition to the opportunities for your pupils to experience specialised coaching and teaching, our sports programme offers valuable CPD for your own teaching staff. This programme will evolve over time as we add more classes and events, and we are very open to receiving suggestions from you as to what you would like us to provide. If you would like to book any of the sessions within this booklet or would like to discuss your own individual requirements, please contact Desni Ennis, Head of Marketing, Admissions & Development on 0118 974 3215. Email: desni.ennis@ luckleyhouseschool.org. Please do let us know if you require help with transport as we may be able to offer minibus pick-up. I look forward to working with you in the near future.

DANCE WORKSHOPS
Our resident dance specialists would like to present a 60 minute dance workshop for pupils in Years 5 to 8.
Pupils will learn street dance style choreography and practice the routines, before delivering a fun and energetic performance.
DISCOVER THE TREASURES BENEATH THE SEA A FASCINATING PIRATE SHIP-THEMED HISTORY WORKSHOP FOR PUPILS IN YEARS 5 TO 8.
The coastline of Britain is a treasure trove of historical information; everyone knows about the Mary Rose, but there are more than 40,000 other ships waiting to be explored. The question is - how do we get that information to the surface? And once we have it, how can we use it?
In this 80 minute hands-on workshop, pupils get to see the difficulties of exploring historical sites that are underwater. They will also work with undersea photographs to draw conclusions about the past, and explore an online database of wreck sites that have been recorded by underwater archaeologists.
