The first Friday of term started with a visit from the renowned Young Shakespeare Company.
Once again this extremely talented troupe of young actors kept all the children in Years 5 to 8 spellbound with their superb rendition of the classic play "Hamlet."
Acting in a variety of roles, and fully involving the audience throughout, the actors conveyed this powerful story of madness and treachery, tragedy and pathos. The acting was simply superb and reduced many of us to tears (which is no mean feat in a simple production in a packed Old Gym with no special lighting, effects or makeup!). I feel sure that we will see many of these actors' names again in years to come, so accomplished were they all.
A lovely way to start the term.
