Police and School Stage Alien Invasion

[neutron flux]

Children from an Edgware school were made to believe aliens had landed in their playground by teachers and police.


After spending this morning bewildered by the unusual hoax, pupils from Stag Lane School in Collier Drive, quizzed police officers brought on to the site during a press conference to make the event seem more realistic. Forensic examiners had earlier analyzed an 'alien claw' they had 'found' on the site.


The aim of the day was to stimulate the children's minds and help develop their story writing skills.


After lunch the pupils were informed by the school's headteacher Elena Evans that it was all a stunt.

A pretty odd way to stimulate children's minds for story writing skills. More like conditioning.

At least that's one group of kids who won't believe everything their told from now on.

The Police and teachers are liars, yes that's a valuable lesson learned!

[godspeed]

and the moral of the story is dont believe everything authority tells you to be true lol...what the hells going on in schools is it free reign without a brain.

[brainfreeze]

I am appalled and angered by this and the journo in me wants to ring the head mistress up and ask her whose idea this was, and had they thought through the adverse effects such a stunt would have on the children?

[upsetbrit]

Harmless fun. I had to endure magicians, Punch & Judy shows and bury time capsules. That reminds me, i wonder if they're still there.

"After lunch the pupils were informed by the school's headteacher Elena Evans that it was all a stunt"

If this happened to me... I would have burned the school down for pulling a prank like this on me.

[grenadene]

My son is 6 and he would have loved it :D he's fascinated about the planets at the moment and is always asking questions.

[lordofangels]

a little teaser for Bluebeam, or a common purpose stunt,
sounds like the latter to me.

[musti]

maybe something regarding aliens happened and this is a cover up story. they knew they couldn't silence all of the kids. even if the kids saw something and told them that they saw something, parents would dismiss it since they would think their imagination is at work because of the stunt!

i don't believe what i read in the newspaper or police investigations. i'm not saying this is a cover up story but there is a possibility of that.

Interesting thought, maybe this was a damage limitation exercise ;)

Totally 'predicitve programming".......it is so sick that they would implant th alien invasion shit into their young minds AT SCHOOL......

[musti]

yes, the bluebeam preconditioning is another possibility. i thought about it but it's such a small percentage of population that they effect with this stunt. i don't find it practical from their pov. if i were ptb i would either do this in large scale (several schools) or i wouldn't bother at all with one school probably at most a few hundred kids out of many many millions! but if we start to see this kind of thing happening again and again then bluebeam preconditioning it is! but i might be wrong, it's hard to predict what ptb do since there are elements when don't fully know.

btw, this reminded me the crazy swedish twins news, which is at least as absurd is this. there is a thread about it:

you never know. cute dog btw :)

I was forced to learn knitting against my will :D
I knitted a pretty cool teddy bear though :p

[xpleet]

Event to train children's story-writing skills or mass mindcontrol experiment? I'm sick what I'm hearing from US/UK schools.


The UFO's that will soon be sighted in the skies however, won't be fake.

Could be!

Just an update to say that I noticed today in my local paper:

http://www.dorsetecho.co.uk/news/localnews/3829373.Aliens_land_in_Wyke_Regis/

SHOCKED pupils arrived at school to find a spaceship had crash-landed in their playground.

Youngsters at Wyke Regis Junior School in Weymouth spotted debris from where the alien craft had touched down and blasted off again – including burn marks and slimy green footprints.

Police sealed off the scene while a government scientist took readings and probed the evidence.

And the whole school of 370 pupils aged seven to 11 then spent the day writing news stories, magazine features and information leaflets about the X-Files-style mystery.

So it seems it is being carried out all over the country with the same template.

[whatistruth]

Alright so its going on all over the place... :confused::eek:

[citroen999]

what a waste of fuckin money and police time...

dont they have terrorists to catch in train stations?

Something doesnt add up though, two stories the same but one made up and one not?

Slimy green footprints? This cracks me up! :(

[krakhead]

Couldn't this have just been a really cool day for the kids?

I will admit that when I first read the story I pictured it being presented to the children in a manner that was very much "AAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHH!!! QUICKLY CHILDREN! RUN FOR YOUR FUCKING LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

But after reading two reports about it, I now think it was more likely to have been quite a bit more gentle in it's application.

Would anyone be so upset if the school arranged for a 'real-live' dinosaur egg to be found?

Yeah something is up, did they actually made the fake slime and footprints?

To "stimulate childrens fantasy" WTF ?

nope, different thing totally..

A pretty odd way to stimulate children's minds for story writing skills. More like conditioning.

Testing peoples reactions to an alien invasion maybe for a possible fake one during the london olympics in 2012?

Also, conditioning people into believing an alien invasion is likely, that might be another reason for this.

After all, police were involved, so that suggests someone high up wanted this done, a school teacher doesn't ask police to direct officers away from crime fighting to get involved in a fake alien invasion in a school.

[krakhead]

nope, different thing totally..

Yes, I think you're right. There's plenty of real evidence that dinosaurs existed isn't there?

[lordzoma]

This entire incident serves one major purpose:

Random school, randomly chosen, or specific school specifically chosen. Either way the school kids represent a slice of the newest generation.

In a controlled situation the children were immediatelt put into a first contact declassification situation. Their behavior and their reactions were naturally monitored. Then the 'entire rest of the day' the children wrote about what happened and chronicled their opinions and take on the situation. This is their method of finding out how the children react on a whole, and then also individually by analyzing everything each child wrote the entire day.

No doubt that this has all the markings of a test to see how different profiles of people react in regards to this specific incident. While the whole thing could have 'innocently' been a fun exercise that a totally human school board may have come up with, it remains highly suspect and the results are still the same. The only thing in question is simply who, if any, is using the information for their own benefit.

Events like this should come as no surprise to anyone on this forum. And be sure to check out my language of the stars thread located here: http://davidicke.com/forum/showthread.php?t=42058

[lordzoma]

Oh here I was thinking it was a school in the US.

So it was in england?

I take back what I said about there being the possibility of everyone involved in staging this event being human. LOL. Seriously.

[cleopatraxxx]

At least that's one group of kids who won't believe everything their told from now on.

on one hand, but in whom will they rely their kids trust if not teachers as to what they are taught?

ridiculous

absent parents due to working hours rarrely dedicate themselves to their kids, now not to believe the teachers... that will only create more instability in the kids minds...

i am flabbergasted...

[cleopatraxxx]

I was forced to learn knitting against my will :D
I knitted a pretty cool teddy bear though :p

we were taught to knitt too, but we were told those bears would go to homeless, poor african starving kids... and it was a happier event...
by the way, those kids appreciate a small damaged toy and cherish it forever... contrARY TO OUR spoilt little shits WHO HAVE NOT A CLUE HOW MANY HOURS A PARENTS SITS AT WORK TO GET THEM A STUPID xbOX 360!

I do hate THIS PLANET... SORRY.........

didnt mean that smart arse...

the ufo agenda is getting lots exposure lately for some strange reason, and this seems a real strange thing to do.. could be bluebeam who knows??

basically it was like a 9/11 or 7/7 for kids, did they do a pretend COBRA meeting behind the bikesheds too to take charge of the emergency?

If i wanted my child to learn freethinking and creativity in writing try showing them creative writing from people who excelled in that field, song writers, authors and people who had something important to say, not some half baked terrorist copy cat role play

[pduffy4]

This will be a Common Purpose stunt to make the children resent the Police.

They are total shit heads for doing this you would think the Police would have more sense, but of course not.

[lewi]

Takes me back to Monsters Inc and the scare tatics used to draw out the childrens energy these poor children this school should be closed and students moved somewhere less hostal to young developing minds.

War on the youth get them while there young and i say no they should sue the school whos with me ??

The police have nothing better to do than play games in a school yard hmmmmmm.........

[isis_damia]

i wonder what some of the parents of these children thought about it.

[neutron flux]

I did a little digging and apart from a few school blogs such as this:

http://moblog.net/view/855810/alien-invasion

Where a child says:

Itwas not real it was just a prank the little children were petrified they were.Mr Dickinson and Miss Herbert and Miss Mambeys husband made the flying sarser Miss Herbert thought of it it was a fun day Mr Dickinnson was the alion it was skarey at first then i did not belive it after lunch then it was not real it was justa alot of fun it took a day of work to do it

I also found a "case study" here:

http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:jAzWIkbmHT8J:www.everybodywrites.or g.uk/downloads/primary/alien/Broomwood%2520Case%2520Study.pdf+primary+school+al ien+invasion+police+hoax&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&gl=uk

Initially just one community police officer attended but when she
realised what we were trying to achieve she phoned her sergeant
and the ‘mobile cop shop’ was summoned.
The van arrived and six additional officers then guarded the
scene. This, together with the fire alarm going off, made the event
more realistic.

At one point it says to go to the espresso website to download the teaching sequence. I went to the site and a few interesting things caught my eye such as:

August 1998: the European Space Agency (ESA) funds Espresso to bring its innovative concept to market, as part of the ARTES-3 project.

With content partners with the likes of ITN and the Telegraph.

Maybe it's all innocent and they're just trying to stimulate kids minds, or maybe it's not, you decide.
