Art Showcase
Congratulations to all the students who took part in the arts showcase just before half term. The event was organised by Jazzelle and Amara and featured year 12 and 13 students. We had drama scripted performances, singing, dancing, piano playing, live art, poetry and spoken word. The aim was to show off talent and share hobbies and to have some fun. The drama studio was packed and lots of fun was had. It was fabulous to see how much talent we have here and audience members reported feeling 'inspired' and 'motivated' to take part next time!

This performance was a great way to show people drama isn’t something silly or easy to do, it takes a lot of effort to put things together and the art of singing, acting, rapping, doing spoken words or speed drawing isn’t as easy as it looks or sounds. It is just like every other profession which takes thought and practice. This was a beautiful cathartic performance where we were able to communicate different meanings through art forms and it was loved by everyone. every piece had a meaning behind it whether the meaning was said or not.
