The Renaissance Faire was a major event in which the subjects English, DT, humanities, performing arts and visual arts all collaborated to form a magical night that parents, teachers and even students enjoyed. It took a lot of time and hard work to prepare. In DT we made replicas of Leonardo Da Vinci's outstanding inventions, in performing arts we learnt how to play the recorder and how to dance just like they did during Renaissance times. In visual arts we drew an art gallery where we displayed Michelangelo's and Leonardo's most praised artwork. We also sculpted figures. In Language A we memorized and acted parts of Midsummer's Night's Dream.
On the night we were meant to present our hard work - the 10th of May, 2011, few drops of rain frightened us but stopped just so we could perform. The costumes were gorgeous and without them it wouldn't have been the same.
The dances were excellent, although contained a few mistakes. The play went great with hardly any lines forgotten and the recorders were played beautifully by both classes.
Preparing this night sure wasn't a piece of cake and required a lot of effort from numerous subjects. In the end it was worth it and I hope the audience enjoyed it even more that I did.
