Dream tickets selling fast…! Get your Dream tickets now…!

 

Some lines cut from ‘Pyramus and Thisbe’ due to their impromptu and offensive nature:

 

Bottom: Fool, thou hast forgot the hook to hold our curtain up!

So stand here to stop it crashing atop my noble head!

 

Snout: ^*&&^$$%Y$(*^*&%%!!!!! (Parental Guidance advised)

 

Flute: I’m so glad I don’t actually have a beard coming. ‘Twould undermine the necessary gravitas I am to bring to my role of Thisbe.

 

Starveling: I dare not go on, I am afeard of such a huge audience! They will laugh at me!

Miss Quince: It’s a comedy! That’s the whole point, stupid!

 

Snug: What do you mean, tone it down?

 

Bottom: Hey, Hippolyta baby – drop this Theseus dude and meet me after the show…

 

Yes, these are in-jokes. So be in, and buy your ticket now! Get one of the last tickets left for tonight’s show.

Dec 12th Basketball Scorekeepers G9-12

Are you in grade 12 and are short just one experience

for your CAS portfolio?

or are you in grade 9-11 and forgot to volunteer?

Well, you’re in luck. We have one last event before the holidays and we need 18 scorekeepers for Saturday Dec 12.

Shift 1 – 8.45 am – lunch

Shift 2 – lunch – 5pm

Times will be confirmed later this week. Sign ups will be on Veracross by the end of this week.

Possible learning outcome:

  • Ethics because you will record the score fairly and not cheat
  • Collaboration because you will need to work with the referees and the other score keeper
  • Commitment and perseverance because you need to be focused on the game so you don’t miss any baskets or fouls.
  • Challenge and new skill because you have never score kept before and do not know the rules
  • etc
