Four Creative Activities about MADD
Music
Students will join performances from the orchestra, choir, and rock bands, all interpreting the theme of Time through music.
Arts
Art students will present their creative visions of robots from recycled materials, showing the future in a spectacular fashion parade.
Dance
Dance students will perform specially choreographed pieces representing the past, present, and future.
Drama
Drama students will take to the stage to perform The Halls of History, a specially written script created just for the event, bringing the theme of Time to life through storytelling and performance.
Moments Beyond Time
Worldwise™ Events are hands-on collaborative learning experiences for members of the Dulwich community. They combine theory and real-world application to foster meaningful, long-lasting connections across Dulwich schools and colleges. For students, these events allow further understanding of their world and their ability to make an impact while developing socio-emotional competencies and preparing for life beyond school.
