Leave a comment

We are proud to present our first school production, ‘Oliver JR’.

This musical is based on Charles Dickens’ novel, ‘Oliver Twist’. Featuring well known songs like, ‘Consider Yourself’, ‘Food Glorious Food’ and ‘Oom Pah Pah’, you are guaranteed to have a fabulous time and will want to sing along.

Oliver escapes to London in hope of finding his fortune, and is met by a group of pickpockets and thieves, led by the elderly Fagin. Come along to see Oliver’s chances of discovering the true love he looks for, after coming across Nancy, Bill Sikes and the Artful Dodger.

This musical is fun for the whole family, make sure to get your ticket fast as they will be quick to sell out!

As we are getting closer to our production date it is important that we get all cast members attending every rehearsal. We appreciate this is a big commitment and we expressed this at the start. We have been blown away by our talented youngsters at our rehearsals this far, we know this is a show you will NOT want to miss!

Burns Competition Success Shared

Leave a comment

24/6/22

At Friday’s Get Togethers, we were entertained by pupils who competed in the Ayrshire Burns Competition this month, showcasing their talents in singing, poetry and instrumental to their peers.

Everyone was amazed by and in awe of the talent displayed by our young people! Many pupils have since voiced an interest in competing next year after seeing what can be achieved.

Mrs Wilson was presented with a beautiful bunch of flowers to say thank you for all her help in support in accompanying our singers with the piano. We are so grateful for her help!

Well done again to all our talented children, we are so proud of you all!
