In the Common Room

It would be fantastic if each subject/curriculum area could put forward an Act. There are many hidden talents out there and we want to give Students a chance to show them off! Can you, sing or dance, tell a joke or two, play an instrument, do magic etc Without our Students becoming involved we can not put on this Event.

Therefore we need each Curriculum Area to get involved. A small number of students from each curriculum area could help coordinate the acts, Staff could encourage and support students to get involved.

All Entrants will need to give their names (or Acts name) to Student Services by 02nd March 2012.

We will be holding auditions in March then final rehearsal’s will take place throughout April. We will need students to co-ordinate these events and help with the marketing and audition process – all students & staff help would be greatly appreciated.

Fantastic Prizes and an opportunity to shine….What more can you ask for!! Please see Student Services for more details.
