Wednesday 6 – Saturday 9 April: The Dulwich Players present Terry Pratchett’s Wyrd Sisters
8pm-9pm. Wyrd Sisters was the 6th of Terry Pratchett’s 41 Discworld® books, and one where he quite properly decides that witches, and not wizards, should be the dominant force, driving forward this wonderful world of magic. Join us in a story of drama, love and silliness, combining Macbeth and Hamlet with a touch of Lear (and maybe Blackadder); where the wicked are extremely wicked, and good appears in surprising forms. Depressed heroes and brainless guards; noble actors and a vowel-less demon; all guided by rule-breaking witches and – above all magic – as we fly through 22 manic scene changes to that glorious moment when good triumphs over evil. The Edward Alleyn Theatre, Dulwich College, SE21 7LD Tickets are £12 (plus booking fee) available https://www.dulwichplayers.org/ or bookings@ dulwichplayers.org Tickets are also sold on the door, subject to availability.
Performances: Wednesday 6th – Friday 8th April at 8pm, Saturday 9th April at 3pm and
8pm. Royalties and Programme Donations go to Terry Pratchett’s chosen charity: the Orangutan Foundation. This performance of Wyrd Sisters, a Discworld® Play, is an AMATEUR PRODUCTION

Monday 11 & Thursday 14 April: Get Started with TouchTyping for Dyslexia – Year 5 & 6
1:30pm – 3pm. The touch-typing course is designed for children with dyslexia in Year 5 and 6 and will consist of four days of tuition. Students who attend the course will take away a special keyboard to keep practising on as well as continued access to the online software used. Students are encouraged to continue developing their speed and accuracy beyond the course, which is monitored by the teachers. The group meets up again together with their parents a month later, to celebrate progress and compare their handwriting speed with their touch-typing speed. The course will be led by Suzanne Jessel, a qualified and BDA registered dyslexia teacher and assessor with years of experience as a class teacher and as a SENCO. The sessions will be fun and interactive, focused on showing pupils how they can use this new skill to improve their schoolwork, thereby motivating them to learn this vital skill.
