History: Murder Most Horrid: The Rise of Crime as Entertainment in the 19th Century Day School
The nineteenth century saw an explosion in interest in ‘Sensational Crimes’ which gripped the nation and dominated the press. These crimes soon became the inspiration for popular entertainment, and a visit to the theatre to enjoy a retelling of a bloodcurdling murder or curling up with a fictionalised account of a real-life serial killer’s deeds were the favourite pastimes of many people.

Art Appreciation: Mirrors and Reflections in Art
Mirrors are present in several masterpieces, such as Van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait, Velazquez’s Las Meninas and Manet’s Un Bar aux Folies-Bergères. In these, mirrors and the reflections they reveal are often enigmatic as they add another dimension to what we (think we) see and deepen the work’s meaning.
In this session, we will look at the different ways in which mirrors and reflected images have been included in works of art. As we do so, we will investigate the symbolism of the mirror in Western art and culture.

Professional Development: Food safety
Food Safety is so important in food preparation. If caterers, chefs and wait staff are not adequately trained they can present huge health risks to the community. If you help out in a community or voluntary role, you may need to work with food. Understanding the safe handling of food is key to preventing infections and ensuring proper hygiene. Food safety courses are useful if you do any kind of charity or voluntary work that involves handling food. Whether you help prepare lunches at a community centre or collaborate with a food bank, this knowledge can help you ensure hygiene measures are followed.
This course is funded by the West Midlands Combined Authority.
