Bring Shakespeare's words to life for your students with a workshop led by a professional theatre artist. Available year round, workshops focus on plays in our season or in the school curriculum or can provide a general introduction using text from several plays. Active, engaging and energetic, our workshops give students first-hand experience in the art of playing Shakespeare.

Through the use of voice, movement and acting exercises, students will have the opportunity to explore the plot, characters and language and learn how to bring the text to life. These interactive sessions are both informative and fun, nurturing the students' sense of discovery and play.

"This program is an absolute must! I saw children come out of their shells and excel in ways I never dreamed possible. The instructor was so skilled in both motivating and guiding the children through this amazing opportunity." Teacher, Brooksbank Elementary

Vancouver Technical Secondary Vancouver British Columbia Academic school ranking

Find out how Vancouver Technical Secondary ranks compared to other British Columbia schools

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
It began as a vision: Melanie Beliveau, a Vancouver Technical Secondary School (VanTech) biology teacher believed in the possibilities of teaching in an outdoor classroom that was supported by urban farmers and big enough for the entire school to use. VanTech already had an existing school garden, so teachers understood the value of teaching outside, but they desired a long-term, resilient partner to support with gardening maintenance, resources, and knowledge.

Together, Melanie and Ilana of Fresh Roots dreamed up the concept of a Schoolyard Market Garden - a commercially producing educational farm on school land utilized as an outdoor learning classroom. As VanTech and the Vancouver School Board began drawing plans for a new green landscape on the east side of the school, they invited Fresh Roots to join the conversation. Areas within the landscape architecture plan were allotted to the 'school farm' and teachers' dreams of an outdoor learning classroom took root.

In March of 2013, 285 volunteers spent four days to establish the VanTech Schoolyard Market Garden. The outcome is a garden where teachers teach their curriculum outdoors, where students experience transformational learning while working alongside young urban farmers, and where the school's cafeteria staff source produce for school lunches.

Reel Youth facilitated claymation film workshops with students at VanTech, asking them to create one minute films that answer the question "Why is the market garden important to you?" Find the short clips below!
