In our final TOPS session today we were lucky enough to be visited by Fiona, a musical theater director from Elgin Musical Theatre.

After learning what is needed to put on a show, including prompters, set designers, costumers and actors, we read some scripts from a forthcoming production of Oliver.

As you can see from the photos below Applegrove are a talented bunch and willing to throw themselves into any opportunity that comes their way. Luckily we had children willing to work both on the stage, and behind the scenes.

We were very lucky with the weather on Tuesday for the Potted Sports and all had a super day. It was noticed how well the children worked in their teams and supported each other. Everyone had a great time and there were lots of smiles and laughter.

A huge thank you to all the parents and helpers who helped out on the day with games and counting. Thank you to the PTA for paying for the crisps and juice. Thank you also to the house captains and teachers who came in early in the morning to help set up the 20 games. Well done to Douglas who won the tournament overall and Douglas A team who had the most points for an individual team.
