Welcome to the Brimsham FILM CLUB homepage
What is FILM CLUB?
Funded by the DCSF, FILM CLUB is a free after-school activity for children and young people aged 5 to 18. It introduces pupils to the wonder of films by helping teachers run weekly clubs in schools to show fantastic movies from every era and corner of the world. Watching a film is anything but passive; FILM CLUB opens the door onto a dazzling world of cultures, life stories, aspirations, times and places.
Vision and aims:
FILM CLUB's vision is for young people across the UK to grow up with a rich film culture that broadens their minds. FILM CLUB inspires young people to watch and engage with a diverse range of films that stimulates the imagination, promotes understanding of different worlds and cultures, creates opportunities for informal learning and fosters social interaction among young people. FILM CLUB encourages discussion, debate, reflection and the development of critical skills, embedding film as part of young people's cultural experience.
Why film?
Film is arguably our richest form of storytelling. It is the democratic art form; everyone can enjoy and understand a film. It is this rich and unique medium that FILM CLUB believes should be available to all young people.
All year 7, 8 and 9 pupils welcome.
If you would like to join this free club, you will need to return a consent letter (available from the study centre) before the first film.
All films are shown in the Study Centre, after school on week 2, Thursdays.
