I don’t suppose they had ever thought about railways except as a means of getting to Maskelyne and Cook’s, the Pantomime, Zoological Gardens, and Madame Tussaud’s. They were just ordinary suburban children, and they lived with their Father and Mother in an ordinary red-brick-fronted villa, with coloured glass in the front door, a tiled passage that was called a hall, a bath-room with hot and cold water, electric bells, French windows, and a good deal of white paint, and ‘every modern convenience’, as the house- agents say. There were three of them. Roberta was the eldest. Of course, Mothers never have favourites, but if their Mother HAD had a favourite, it might have been Roberta. Next came Peter, who wished to be an Engineer when he grew up; and the youngest was Phyllis, who meant extremely well.

  • The Railway Children BBC 1968
    The Railway children BBC 1968 For all the family to enjoy, this is a magical rendering of this classic tale. The settings in the Worth Valley in West Yorkshire are beautiful and this was filmed on an embryonic private enthusiast preserved railway just at the time when steam trains had disappeared from our everyday lives. All the main characters are cast very well and who can resist Jenny Agutter in one of her early roles. You would have to be very cold-hearted not to hold back a tear or a big lump in your throat at the climax to the story, and the ending scene over the closing titles says it all. The cast and producers really did enjoy making this one and it stands the test of time. There are no shoot-outs, mass explosions or wild car chases, just honest loving relationships evolving around hard and troubled times. The recent ITV remake was good but doesn't capture the honest emotions and simple sincerity of life in less materialistic times. Go on get it for the family if you have never seen it and even better still, visit Haworth, Oakworth and the Worth Valley and you can still sample the set today! don't remember, watching this in 1968, the children continually looking off set for their cues or the occasional clumsy improvisation but these things just add to the naive beauty of this (apparently) live production which for me was never upstaged by the slicker 1970 film version, though I feel I have to compare the two.

  • To Download Notes for Schools
    A superb musical theatre adaptation of E. Nesbit's quintessentially English classic. An idyllic family Christmas in an affluent London suburb is interrupted by a knock at the door. Affable Station Master, Mr Perk’s, recounts the story of a young Edwardian family, whose lives have been irrevocably changed by a set of unforeseen circumstances. When Foreign Office Civil Servant, Charles Waterbury is imprisoned for selling state secrets, his wife up-sticks, moving her children to Three Chimneys Cottage, Somerset. Discovering a railway near their new home is just the beginning of a series of adventures for the Westbury Children Roberta (Bobbie), Peter and young Phyllis. The Railway becomes the source of friendships, love, dramas and reunifications, as the Westbury family embed themselves in the heart of their new community, fighting for justice and to clear their family name. Julian Woolford's and Richard John's musical brings a masterful emotional depth to this rite of passage story, that follows the story’s protagonist Bobbie as she transitions from an innocent youth to a responsible, politicised adult. Woolford and John’s adaptation features heartfelt ballads, stirring choral numbers and tuneful melodies. Notes for Schools Thank you for booking to see The Railway Children at The Brewhouse Theatre and Arts Centre this Christmas. This resource is to support your visit to our show, and provide you with additional creative and cross-curricular ideas to enhance your teaching. It is put together with teachers in mind and we hope it will inspire your lessons in the lead up to watching. There are 5 sections: 1.

  • Edith Nesbit - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Edith Nesbit - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Edith Nesbit(15 August 1858 – 4 May 1924) Edith Nesbit (married name Edith Bland) was an English author and poet whose children's works were published under the name of E. Nesbit. She wrote or collaborated on over 60 books of fiction for children, several of which have been adapted for film and television. She was also a political activist and co-founded the Fabian Society, a precursor to the modern Labour Party. <b>Biography</b> Nesbit was born in 1858 at 38 Lower Kennington Lane in Kennington, Surrey (now part of Greater London), the daughter of an agricultural chemist, John Collis Nesbit, who died in March 1862, before her fourth birthday. Her sister Mary's ill health meant that the family moved around constantly for some years, living variously in Brighton, Buckinghamshire, France (Dieppe, Rouen, Paris, Tours, Poitiers, Angoulême, Bordeaux, Arcachon, Pau, Bagnères-de-Bigorre, and Dinan in Brittany), Spain and Germany, before settling for three years at Halstead Hall in Halstead in north-west Kent, a location which later inspired The Railway Children (this distinction has also been claimed by the Derbyshire town of New Mills). When Nesbit was 17, the family moved again, this time back to London, living variously in South East London at Eltham, Lewisham, Grove Park and Lee. A follower of William Morris, 19-year-old Nesbit met bank clerk Hubert Bland in 1877. Seven months pregnant, she married Bland on 22 April 1880, though she did not immediately live with him, as Bland initially continued to live with his mother.
