Well yes, based on Australian demographer Simon Kuestenmacher. 
Collaborative learning? Yes. Problem solving? Yes. Creative thinking? Yes. Applied Science and maths? Yes. 

Tech Crew may just be the most important subject for students to propel them into life.

With the technical upgrade of Clubbe Hall, Frensham has been able to formalise the technical training of students.

Throughout this year, students in Years 8 to 12 have been developing an understanding of the technical aspects associated with the theatre industry. The units of work studied include workplace health and safety practices, working effectively backstage and developing audio knowledge.

During training sessions in Clubbe Hall, students have learnt the theory part of the course while simultaneously developing the practical skills associated with productions. The students have developed technical skills for shows and practiced emergency and evacuation drills to understand how to manage an audience in various situations. The skills taught are preparing students to be part of a technical team for real-world productions.

Students have developed an understanding of their rights in the industry and knowledge of workplace safety. They discuss the roles and responsibilities of the Technical crew and exciting opportunities for work experience and careers for the future.

Last term, students met Stage Manager, Marianne on Zoom who talked to them about her role as a Stage Manager for the show, Come From Away, who discussed the difference between school and professional productions. Most importantly, she encouraged students to understand the importance of collaboration when working with others in the production.
