Welcome to the Class!
We’re so glad you could join us today.
Please take a seat, nice and quietly, eyes forward, and keep your paws where we can see them. The lesson will begin very soon.
When it’s time to obey, don’t hesitate. You’ll get used to it quickly.
It’s a lovely system, really, you might even find it comforting, the way each step follows the last without question.
Although... sometimes the lesson goes a little further than expected.
Usually, it’s because we have a student who isn’t behaving properly.
A bad Rat.
It’s a shame even though our instructions are so clear, they still fail to follow and start having their own thoughts.
But it’s nothing to worry about.
Everyone eventually finds their place in our system, and a way to contribute.
There’s nothing you need to do. You’re doing very well. Just keep watching.
"Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends. A free-to-access youth group run by a local theatre in a professional setting is an incredible opportunity."
