Lower and Middle School Festival

I would like to extend my thanks to all staff who prepared and supported the pupils in the Lower and Middle School Festival before half term. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the range of work that was presented, and I am sure the parents loved it too.

There was such a variety of work shown that was not only creatively shared, but also demonstrated high levels of academic achievement which undoubtedly will support good outcomes further up the school.

There were literary devices galore in the poetry, synchronicity and cannon movements in the physical performances, and character interpretation in the words and gestures.

The performances and pre-performance practices were underpinned by retrieval practice, elaboration, and the science of learning, which will act as an excellent reference point when revision is required.

Thank you again to all involved for the show — it was a pleasure to see the culmination of so much thoughtful preparation and talent.

– Stuart McWilliams, Principal
