This week Lumenus have been exploring still images, focusing on facial and body expressions and use of space. They have introduced to basic choreography using the alphabet as a stimulus. 

All students have enjoyed the sessions, worked as a team and produced some lovely work.

About Me – Mr Mckeown 

"My name is Mr Mckeown and I am the Head of New Bridge College. I extremely enjoy working alongside pupils, students and staff, and also the wider community of Oldham; ensuring that we all work together to be the best that we can be, succeed and we really make a vital difference. Providing outstanding education and enhancing pupil and student experience are areas in which I feel extremely passionate about. 

I am passionate Liverpool FC fan and my love for football and my team began when I watched the 1986 FA Cup final. It was a Merseyside derby between Liverpool and Everton and Liverpool won 3-1! Sticking with the ‘80s’, growing up as child throughout the 80s I listened to Duran-Duran, A-ha, Wham and Queen. I ran home from school to catch (most days the end of) Master of the Universe, Thundercats or Transformers and the movies I loved watching on VHS included Ghostbusters, Police Academy, E.T, Tron and one of my favourites The Goonies! To this date, I still dive into some 80s nostalgia at least once a day. This includes listening to music, watching movies or wearing my synthetic shell suit!"
