African Cats Directed by: Keith Scholey and Alastair Fothergill Certificate: U (contains documentary footage of animals hunting and fighting) Running time: 89 mins Release Date: 27th April 2012 Suitable for: The activities in these study notes address aspects of the curriculum for literacy, science and geography for pupils between ages 5–11. www.filmeducation.org 1 ©Film Education 2012. Film Education is not responsible for the content of external sites Synopsis An epic true story set against the backdrop of one of the wildest places on Earth, African Cats captures the real-life love, humour and determination of the majestic kings of the Savannah. The story features Mara, an endearing lion cub who strives to grow up with her mother’s strength, spirit and wisdom; Sita, a fearless cheetah and single mother of five mischievous newborns; and Fang, a proud leader of the pride who must defend his family from a rival lion and his sons. Genre African Cats is a nature documentary, referred to by its producers as a ‘true life adventure’. It was filmed in the Maasai Mara National Reserve, a major game region in southwestern Kenya. The film uses real-life footage to tell the true story of two families of wild animals, both fighting to survive in the Savannah. African Cats features a voiceover narration by the actor Samuel L. Jackson and a portion of the money made from ticket sales went to the African Wildlife Foundation. Before SeeinG the film Review pupils’ understanding of the documentary genre.

Disneynature Penguins Activity Packet
ACTIVITY PACKET Created in Partnership with Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment IN THEATERS EARTH DAY 2019 arrated by Ed Helms (The Office, The Hangover trilogy, The Daily Show with NJon Stewart), Disneynature’s all-new feature filmPenguins is a coming-of-age story about an Adélie penguin named Steve who joins millions of fellow males in the icy Antarctic spring on a quest to build a suitable nest, find a life partner and start a family. None of it comes easily for him, especially considering he’s targeted by everything from killer whales to leopard seals, who unapologetically threaten his happily ever after. From the filmmaking team behindBears and Chimpanzee, Disneynature’s Penguins opens in theaters and in IMAX® April 17, 2019. Acknowledgments Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment would like to take this opportunity to thank the amazing teams that came together to develop the Disneynature Penguins Activity Packet. It was created with great care, collaboration and the talent and hard work of many incredible individuals. A special thank you to Dr. Mark Penning for his ongoing support in developing engaging educational materials that connect families with nature. These materials would not have happened without the diligence and dedication of Kyle Huetter and Lacee Amos who worked side by side with the filmmakers and educators to help create these compelling activities and authored the unique writing found throughout each page. A big thank you to Hannah O’Malley and Michelle Mayhall whose creative thinking and artistry developed games and crafts into a world of outdoor exploration. Special thanks to director Jeff Wilson, director/producer Alastair Fothergill and producers Mark Linfield, Keith Scholey and Roy Conli for creating such an amazing story that inspired the activities found within this packet. -

The School established a Recognition Committee following the Royal Commission’s public hearings, which met three times in 2016. The School implemented the major recommendation of the Recognition Committee by appointing a Survivor Liaison Coordinator, Renee Handsaker, to provide outreach and support to survivors of child sexual abuse at the School. Ms Handsaker has performed a vital role assisting survivors in a confidential and independent way. Her role is complimentary to, but separate of, the independent counsellor provided by the School to offer counselling and advice. The Royal Commission released its final report from the School’s case study in February 2017. -

CERNNovember/December 2019 cerncourier.com COURIERReporting on international high-energy physics WELCOME CERN Courier – digital edition Welcome to the digital edition of the November/December 2019 issue of CERN Courier. The Extremely Large Telescope, adorning the cover of this issue, is due to EXTREMELY record first light in 2025 and will outperform existing telescopes by orders of magnitude. It is one of several large instruments to look forward to in the decade ahead, which will also see the start of high-luminosity LHC operations. LARGE TELESCOPE As the 2020s gets under way, the Courier will be reviewing the LHC’s 10-year physics programme so far, as well as charting progress in other domains. In the meantime, enjoy news of KATRIN’s first limit on the neutrino mass (p7), a summary of the recently published European strategy briefing book (p8), the genesis of a hadron-therapy centre in Southeast Europe (p9), and dispatches from the most interesting recent conferences (pp19—23). CLIC’s status and future (p41), the abstract world of gauge–gravity duality (p44), France’s particle-physics origins (p37) and CERN’s open days (p32) are other highlights from this last issue of the decade.

Greening Wildlife Documentary’, in Libby Lester and Brett Hutchins (Eds) Environmental Conflict and the Media, New York: Peter Lang
Morgan Richards (forthcoming 2013) ‘Greening Wildlife Documentary’, in Libby Lester and Brett Hutchins (eds) Environmental Conflict and the Media, New York: Peter Lang. GREENING WILDLIFE DOCUMENTARY Morgan Richards The loss of wilderness is a truth so sad, so overwhelming that, to reflect reality, it would need to be the subject of every wildlife film. That, of course, would be neither entertaining nor ultimately dramatic. So it seems that as filmmakers we are doomed either to fail our audience or fail our cause. — Stephen Mills (1997) Five years before the BBC’s Frozen Planet was first broadcast in 2011, Sir David Attenborough publically announced his belief in human-induced global warming. “My message is that the world is warming, and that it’s our fault,” he declared on the BBC’s Ten O’Clock News in May 2006. This was the first statement, both in the media and in his numerous wildlife series, in which he didn’t hedge his opinion, choosing to focus on slowly accruing scientific data rather than ruling definitively on the causes and likely environmental impacts of climate change. Frozen Planet, a seven-part landmark documentary series, produced by the BBC Natural History Unit and largely co-financed by the Discovery Channel, was heralded by many as Attenborough’s definitive take on climate change. It followed a string of big budget, multipart wildlife documentaries, known in the industry as landmarks1, which broke with convention to incorporate narratives on complex environmental issues such as habitat destruction, species extinction and atmospheric pollution. David Attenborough’s The State of the Planet (2000), a smaller three-part series, was the first wildlife documentary to deal comprehensively with environmental issues on a global scale. -

A-Level Physics Transition Work Summer 2021
A-level Physics Transition Work Summer 2021 Welcome to A-level Physics! Congratulations on choosing the best A-level subject! The purpose of this work is to revise key concepts from GCSE so that you are as ready as possible for A-level Physics in September. Please complete this work on separate sheets of paper and bring it with you to your first Physics lesson in September. We expect to see all three tasks attempted and self-marked. You should expect to find some of the tasks hard. If you are stuck with any of this work, please feel free to contact Mr. Smith ([email protected]) for a hint. There are three tasks. You should spend 1½ to 2 hours on each one. Complete as many of the questions as you can in this time. If you don’t get to the end of the questions, that is fine as long as you have made the effort. Task 1 Energy Task 2 Electric circuits Task 3 Resultant force All the answers are in the back, so you can check your work yourself. (If you think you have spotted a mistake in the answers, please let us know using the email address above!) Other resources to help you prepare… GCSE revision guides - use these to revise key knowledge. The first topics you will study are electricity (AQA P2) and forces and motion (AQA P5), so these are the best sections to focus on. Buy the CGP books ‘Head Start to A-level Physics’ (tinyurl.com/ycboqamn) and ‘Essential Maths Skills for A-level Physics’ (tinyurl.com/y9grnrag).
