Get Involved

The main event of the TCW school year - the Showcase is a chance for students to perform in any way they wish in front of a live audience. In the past, we have enjoyed a range of talents from students of all ages and abilities. From singing, dance and comedy, to film production, poetry reading and instrument recitals, this nurturing show has it all. Many of our students have never been on stage before, so if you are nervous, we are here to support you. Many students also produce videos to be played at the Showcase, if they prefer not to perform live. Speak to your teacher, email Jack - jack.laffargue@tcw.org.uk - for more information.

Our first ever TCW Film Festival will be an eclectic celebration of short films and video art, all created by students. Whether you see yourself as a future movie director, or you just have a knack for capturing moments on your phone, we will help to develop and edit your work into something special. All students are welcome to take part. You can work independently, with the support of your teachers, or alongside peers. We can't wait to watch the finished results!

On 3rd July, we will be hosting an exhibition celebrating our students’ art work, at the Stolen Space Gallery near Brick Lane. We invite you to contribute work in any medium and style on the theme of “The Journey.” Drawing, painting, performance, abstract, video art are all welcome, to name a few. All work will be exhibited for public display for a whole day. We will be inviting students and staff from across the school to stop in an appreciate what's on show.

Last term, we planted a number of trees at a site near Tower Bridge. These need ongoing care in order to grow happily. Would you like to make a trip to the site to care for the saplings? The site is a twenty-minute walk from the Creative Hub, or the Bermondsey Hub.

This is your chance to be a published Poet, Author, Artist or Photographer! Every year we publish an anthology of students’ creative work. If you would like to contribute, we would love to hear from you. You could submit a story, poem, play, a piece of artwork, or a photo. The Anthology has been a yearly project at TCW for many years, run by Christian, our Poet in Residence. Christian or your teachers, can support you in your creative journey, or you can submit something directly.
