Catholic Mission's Village Space is a great educational tool as a springboard into specific Key Learning Areas, especially Religious Education and Society and Environment. It provides inspiration for Social Justice Action within the school. The outcomes of Village Space are best achieved when the program is run as a partnership between Catholic Mission, teachers and students, beginning before the day of the performance and continuing in the classroom when the performance is over. Teacher's Notes with a synopsis of stories and issues are provided in advance to assist in preparation. Debriefing following the dramatic presentation is an integral part of the whole Village Space experience.Catholic Mission staff are present where possible to support teachers in the debriefing session with guiding questions.
