Following a very successful Christmas production of Cinderella in December 2001 the Parkfield Primary Players drama group was set up. The group consisted of pupils from both Bowesfield Primary and nearby St Patricks R.C Primary.
The group performed several awesome shows, shared amazing experiences and created long lasting memories.
We would love to hear from anyone who remembers these amazing times.
