London is a culturally vibrant city <strong>and</strong>, as always, the following weeks are full of<br />

all sorts of weird <strong>and</strong> wonderful exhibitions <strong>and</strong> theatre productions going on.<br />

<br />

<br />

At the Young Vic <br />

Hou <br />

<br />

Award for Best Actress. The play is a fascinating look into the sacrificial roles of<br />

women in the 19 th century <strong>and</strong> provoked a great deal of outrage when it first<br />

premiered due to its feministic stance. It is only on for a short time, so book<br />

while you can!<br />

At the National Theatre <br />

shown from 14 January-­‐10 March. It is a collection of photographs <strong>and</strong> objects<br />

which traveller Robin Hanbury-­‐Tenison took whilst travelling to remote tribes<br />

from the 1950s to the 1970s. This exhibition holds remnants of a world<br />

overtaken by ours, a past which was forced to make way for a rapidly<br />

approaching future. It is a melancholic <strong>and</strong> yet inspiring experience to view<br />

closely how those invisible to rest of the world lived. The exhibition is free, so<br />

do go if you get the chance.<br />

However busy life at school may become, it is important to go out <strong>and</strong> see what this incredible city has to offer. I<br />

promise you, you will be endlessly surprised <strong>and</strong> delighted. I know I always am.<br />

during morning break. This break was always supposed to be a fruit-­‐break, but some girls have started to bring in<br />

cereal bars, biscuits <strong>and</strong> even sweets. The <strong>St</strong>udent Council voted that only fruit should be eaten if the girls want to<br />

have a snack during break-­‐time, as fruit is the only really healthy choice. Many snacks <strong>and</strong> cereal bars which are<br />

hidden calories, sugar or fat. We also thought that as the break is<br />

<br />

Please support the <strong>St</strong>udent Council <strong>and</strong> give your daughter fruit for her morning break if she wishes to have a snack<br />

before lunch.<br />
