Dear Parents

Soar to New Heights with Peter Pan! 

We are thrilled to announce our upcoming production of Peter Pan, where our pupils will take to the stage in a whirlwind of adventure, music, and magic! The true value of this experience lies in the lifelong skills our children are developing along the way.

Being part of a school production fosters teamwork as pupils collaborate, support one another, and work towards a shared goal. It builds confidence as they step out of their comfort zones, perform in front of an audience, and discover their own capabilities. Creativity flourishes as they bring characters to life, design sets, and solve problems together. And, of course, they learn the importance of perseverance—rehearsals can be challenging, but the reward of a standing ovation makes every effort worthwhile!

These skills—teamwork, confidence, creativity, and resilience—are just as vital to future success as academic achievements. Whether in future careers, relationships, or personal growth, the lessons learned on stage will help our children navigate challenges and seize opportunities with courage and imagination. As a school we recognise that creativity can play a key role in a child's future; we continue to develop these important dispositions in our students.

So please come along to cheer on our young performers—not just for the show itself, but for the incredible growth they’ve shown along the way. Together, let’s celebrate their hard work and watch them shine! Please find details of the show dates below.

"All you need is faith, trust, and a little bit of pixie dust!" 

This leads me perfectly into the article on our display at Bait Al Zubair (see below); this was a major school art project that was created and designed by Ms Jo and the students.  The end product is clear for all to see, the creative processes involved are the key learning element. The project has now been displayed several times in external venues. We are all very proud of this project and how it  values creativity in our students.
