Information
for Parents and Care Givers.
The New Tomorrow is aimed at children in the 8 to13 year old
age group though the program will appeal to many older fans
of the cult hit program, The Tribe.
Indeed The New Tomorrow is a program that will also appeal
to adults and is perfect for watching together with your children.
As well as being entertaining, the program gives parents and
caregivers the perfect opportunity to discuss relevant topics
with their children such as bullying, puberty and sibling
rivalry.
The New Tomorrow has references to characters and situations
from The Tribe names such as Bray and Zoot are perhaps
the ones that are most frequently heard.
The names are often used in an almost religious reverence
by the character Faygar.
Whilst not specifically religious, this usage of iconic figures
references the belief systems of historic cultures operating
in non-religious contexts i.e. ancient cultures often
regarded the sun, moon, trees, or ancestral figures from their
past as having mythological significance.
Since time began, there has been a counterbalance between
good and bad. This is demonstrated in The New Tomorrow (a
fantasy world) with reference to the characters Bray and Zoot.
The New Tomorrow examines issues that would come up at stages
in normal childrens lives bullying or sibling
rivalry for example.
There are also elements of survival, as the children are living
in a world without adults, technology, medical assistance
or schooling.
The New Tomorrow program is backed up by this website, which
will look at all the elements in a fun, educational way.
The Tribe website is also helpful for background information
should you or your children be curious in the background of
the program www.tribeworld.com
