ANOTHER GREAT CLASS PLAY

SEVEN PERFORMANCES last week were received with great reviews from students and parents. Our 24 students presented two short plays this year written by Sid River, a teacher and songwriter in the United Kingdom.  "Girl in da Hoodie" featured a tough, no-nonsense main character in a very familiar childhood tale.  "Eureka!  Eureka!" focused on inventions and discoveries from the stone age to the computer age.

We would like to thank the following people for their assistance in this production: Kim Cooling, Wendy Walters, Katie Prins, Jodie LaVercombe, Melanie Reck, and Jeff Chittenden.  Below are some photo highlights of the plays (click to enlarge).

Granite (Cameron) and Grunt (Joe) discuss their design of the first wheel.

The Wright Brothers (Harry, Ben) are the right brothers for the job.

These "musicians" sing as their ship goes down.

Great inventors (Jessica) require thinking time.

Little Red Hoodie (Caitlyn) torments Mr. Wolf (Joe) as he attempts to pose as Grandma.
