Parents and pupils enjoyed watching Primary 3’s peformance of Crikey Moses. The performance included some super songs.
In the play we saw how the baby Moses was hidden by his parents in the bullrushes and found by the pharoahs daughter who brought him up as her own child.
Primary 3 pupils and staff had worked very hard to produce the excellent performance. Well done!
Mrs Fitzpatrick’s Primary 4 class were invited to join in a puppet making workshop. Storyteller Ben Macfadyen, who has been working with Deveron Arts, has created a story about the White Wood which was planted in the Bin Forest to commemorate peace. The story, set 300 years in the future, when the oak trees in the wood will reach maturity, tells the story of how the WhiteWood came to be.
He came into school to work with the primary 4’s, making shadow puppets from cardboard. puppets included a great deer, a fox and a rabbit. Pupils were very interested to see how to create a shadow puppet performance using torches.
Musician Omar Afif, from Morocco, worked with a group of the pupils creating percussion music to accompany the performance. The P4’s presented their puppet show the following day to a group of S3 pupils in the secondary school.
