Race to the Pole !

 Kensington Upper Primary students really put their drama skills to test when acting out an improvisation which took place in the South Pole . Scott of the Antartic and his team set off to claim the South Pole for his country only to find the Norwegians had got their first. The students had to imagine being in the freezing cold, blizzards and harsh conditions but urged on by Scott  to reach the pole. Faced with defeat and exhaustion , they collapse at the summit
