Week 36

Watch a movie about a school subject

It's September, and thousands of parents breathe a sigh of relief as the kids go back to school. So it's time to join them in their studies, and watch a movie about your favourite school subject.

Of course, it doesn't have to be your favourite subject. It could just be a subject you enjoyed because of a particular teacher, or just fun memories of goofing off with your friends.

Choosing a movie that connects with a school subject can be a fun way to relive those academic days while also gaining a new perspective. Whether it's a thrilling historical drama that makes history come alive, a quirky science fiction film that dives into the mysteries of the universe, or a heartwarming story set in an art class, there’s something for everyone. Plus, it’s a great opportunity to explore topics you might have overlooked in school.
