OH NO IT’S NOT! OH YES IT IS!
Our Christmas Pantomime this year is Cinderella.
After consultation with parents last year, it was decided that the Pantomime will take place in the school. As in previous years, there will be two showings, both taking place during the school day on Friday 19th December.
The cost of the Pantomime is £4 per child and is available to pay on ParentPay. The £4 can be paid in instalments with the minimum payment being set at £1.
