Alton Towers Scarefest - October 2019
We recently took a group of students to perform at Alton Towers.
We performed two ‘scary’ numbers based on the movies ‘The Purge’ and ‘Bird box’ to fit in with the Halloween theme of the show.
Students (and parents!) had an absolute ball as both the performers along with the audience really got into the Halloween spirit.
Everyone looked spooktacular and we can’t wait to visit again!
Starmaker - November 2019
We were really privileged to be invited to perform and compete at the yearly ‘Starmaker’ awards at the Thameside Theatre, Grays.
The students had a fabulous time performing 4 numbers to a packed, sold out auditorium.
Huge congratulations to Macey who won the whole competition with her Tap solo.
We’re so proud of everyone who took part.

A special mention to Lily-Rose, Violet-Bluebell and Hollie who all represented the school beautifully at the Rotary Christmas Concert.
