The David Raeburn prize is run by the Classics Faculty at Oxford University (in partnership with the Archive of Performances of Greek and Roman Drama) and requires students to submit a five-minute performance of an extract from a Greek or Roman play.

Bianca in Year 7 performed an extract from the prologue to Dyskolos (The Bad-Tempered Man) by Menander. This was a UK-wide competition and hundreds of students entered. Staff and post-graduate students from the Faculty of Classics at Oxford judged the performances, and Bianca won first prize. Well done Bianca!
