Love + Hate Trip

To All Year 13 students: URGENT...

Read the letter below, then copy and paste the text into a word document and print off for your parents to sign. Ideally, I would like you to bring in the confirmation slips on Tuesday 1st November. (The first day back after the holiday).

Check out this link to the film - it's going to be very useful for considering the representation of Asians, which is what you study for Module 4. Mariam should be especially pleased because it fits in with her independent study about the representaton of Muslims (see her blog).

Please inform everyone you know on the course about the trip - get on your mobile phones and MSN! It's compulsory and you need to be outside the school gates on Wednesday 2nd November at 8am. (Yes, that early!)

21st October 2005


Dear Parent/Guardian,

To coincide with ‘The London Film Festival’, The English & Media Studies Department at Greenford High School has been offered free complimentary tickets to a special educational screening of the new British film Love + Hate (certificate 15). We are reserving these tickets for A2 Media Studies students, who will go on to study the film for their forthcoming Module 4 exam on Representation/Genre in June, so it is essential that they attend. After the movie, there will be a special Q&A Session with the director, Dominic Savage.

The event takes place at the Genesis Cinema in Mile End, London E1, on Wednesday 2nd November. The school, because of the educational value of the visit, will pay for the cost of the coach that will take us to and from the venue. Students will be required to meet at the school gates at 8am. We cannot wait for latecomers as we must arrive on time at the cinema. We expect to be back at Greenford High School by the time school usually finishes at 3.25pm.

Students will be expected to make contact with their subject teachers during the week of the trip to inform them about it and to find out
what work they will need to do to catch up because of what they will miss.

If you would like your son/daughter to attend, then please fill in the slip below and ask them to return it to Mr. Bush by Wednesday 2nd November. As ever, your support is greatly appreciated.

Yours sincerely,


Mr. A. P. Bush
Head of English & Media Studies
