The rehearsal process has allowed them to explore characterisation, movement, music and drama while working collaboratively towards a shared goal.<\/p>\n<p>The excitement is certainly building as the children prepare to showcase all of their hard work and dedication. We are incredibly proud of their commitment and enthusiasm and cannot wait for them to perform for family and friends.<\/p>\n<p><b>Tickets are available from the school office for \u00a33 each.<\/b>\u00a0Performances will take place on <b>Tuesday afternoon (16th June)<\/b>\u00a0and <b>Wednesday evening (17th June)<\/b>.
