School Variety Show

We are delighted to invite families and friends to our Drama and Music Variety Show on 25 June, a celebration of the creativity, talent and hard work of pupils from across the school. Featuring performers from every year group except Year 11 and Year 13, who are currently on study leave, the evening will showcase a wide range of performances including drama, dance, music, musical theatre and magic.

The variety of acts reflects the breadth of talent within our school community and provides pupils with the opportunity to share their skills and passions with a live audience. The show brings together performers of all ages, creating a vibrant and entertaining programme that highlights both individual achievement and collaborative work. Audiences can look forward to an evening of creativity, energy and imagination, with something for everyone to enjoy.

We are incredibly proud of all the pupils involved and grateful to the staff who have supported them throughout the rehearsal process. We hope you will join us for what promises to be a memorable evening of entertainment and celebration.
