Just before the half term break, all the children in Years 6, 7 and 8 joined together to wow us with performances of poetry, monologues, duologues and sketches.
This was a joint venture by the English and Drama Departments to showcase the children's very clear talents in choral poetry, public speaking, and dramatic interpretation. The evening really did provide something for everyone; a plethora of pieces was performed: from the humorous campaign to 'Be Nice To Your Turkeys This Christmas' to impassioned complaints by the hard-done-by Ugly Stepsister to emotive portrayals of the Whale’s Song.
Altogether, over 30 pieces were presented to the captivated audience and Mrs Henderson and Mrs Brundle couldn’t have been more proud of the children. Many congratulations to everyone who took part.
With such a high standard of performance, this all bodes very well for those children who are taking their LAMDA exams this term. Good luck to the 54 children who will be presenting their pieces; we are sure that they will all perform brilliantly!
