Hollywood comes to your school
How does an incursion day work?
Typically, each program has three activities that all students will rotate through during the course of the day.
All packages comprise of one video activity, one audio activity & animation production.
Each activity is completed during the session and available for playback immediately. Each school will be left with an MPEG4 video file of the video and animation activities.
Schools will also be left with MP3 audio files of the radio shows.
If you have 3 classes, you can do a whole day program involving 3 rotations. If you have 2 classes, you can do 2 activities and finish at lunchtime or pay the minimum fee and do 3 activities.
If you have more than 3 classes, sessions can be extended over two or three days.
Preparation
Preparation varies from package to package. While most programs can be done with no preparation, preparation is recommended as it will make the incursion day run smoother. In most cases, you can be fully prepared for an activity in one hour.
For the grades Prep, One and Two package, there is no preparation.
Ring Michael to talk about your schools special needs.
