The Real Friends performance by Leap One and Bright Sparks Theatre Arts was a fantastic opportunity for Year 6 to learn about hate crimes and mate crimes.
During the performance, the actors asked children what manipulation means:
‘Manipulation is where someone is being controlled beyond their own will.’ – Seth
At home, you might want to follow up this performance by asking your children some questions:
- Which part was the most powerful / emotional?
- What do you know about the word ‘vulnerable’?
- What are protected characteristics?
