Why book 'Arctic and Antarctic' with One Day Creative

One Day is a forward-thinking creative education company, connecting children and learning with creativity and imagination. In this drama workshop, KS2 pupils will be joined by a One Day facilitator for an expedition into these (not so) desolate tundras. Using performing arts, this workshop looks at everything from brave explorers to climate change, Arctic habitats to Antarctic wildlife. Hop on board the mighty ship Endurance and set sail towards the ends of our world!
