Peace Child
Just before the half term break Classes 4 and 5 came together in an exceptional play about two warring tribes living in the colourful land of Mambica. This tough subject was dealt with sensitively by the children, who all acted brilliantly, and sang their hearts out. The moral of the play was that people should be more accepting and tolerant of one another. It all ended happily with the children’s enthusiastic acting showing that they really understood the underlying message!

Caterham Street Festival
During the half term break on Sunday 30th May, the Junior Choir sang to entertain the crowds at the Caterham Street Festival. It was a lovely sunny day, there was so much to do and so much fun. Thank you to all who came to support the choir.

Let’s Sing Together
After a successful session with Recording Stars we are now ready to sell the product of our children’s lovely singing. The School CDs will be sold after half term in the Library at drop off time 8:50–9:15 by Class 7, and at pick up time 3:00–3:45: £9.50 each. Congratulations to Meg of Class 5 for her winning design for the CD cover.

Informal Concert
This Friday, tomorrow, there is an informal Concert being held in the school gym at 1:45. Some of the performances will be a Pop Band from Class 7, piano, singing groups, fifes, drums and guitar playing. Parents are welcome to come and enjoy this musical afternoon.

Mrs. King, Glyndebourne and the BBC:
Some of you may remember back in March Mrs. King had landed herself a role in the wonderful Glyndebourne production of Knight Crew. Gareth Malone of BBC 2’s ‘The Choir’ was chorus master, and was filmed for ‘Gareth goes to Glyndebourne’, to be broadcast on the 17th, 24th of June and 1st of July on BBC2, 9pm. So look out for Mrs. King in the Mothers’ Chorus.
