Senior School Performing Arts Celebration

This was an amazing showcase of classroom learning and reminded us of the wider issues of sustainability and keeping our environment in a way that future generations will appreciate.
Well done teachers and students. It was fun to watch and to anticipate what was going to happen next as the show progressed. LJ.
