Congratulations to Xuanwu, winners of yesterday’s fiercely competitive basketball competition.

Taiping took second place whilst current overall leaders Wutaishan could only manage 3rd place.

Xuanwu were also the winners of the PYP Just Dance Competition last week so its been a good few days for them; are they on their way back? Only time will tell!! These are the current scores:

A reminder of our final run through after school today (Wednesday)!

This will be our last chance to rehearse, so ALL CAST AND CREW please arrive on time at 3:05 – straight after school. We will go over the Fezziwig Party scene, the Portly Gentlemen scene and Marley’s Face technical first and then straight into a run through.

Please do not be late! We will not begin until everyone is present.

Scrooge! Friday Sold Out!

This year’s MYP/DP Production of Scrooge! will be a promenade performance. This description from the Scottish Arts Council explains what this means:

In Promenade the staging or performance area may be set in various locations in a venue. There may even be no distinction between the area the audience sit or stand in and the space for action. The audience inhabit, not just watch, a space.

Seating will be extremely limited! But you’ll not want to sit down as you are swept into the action and become part of the world the old miser Mr Scrooge inhabits!

Performances: 26 & 27 November, 7:00pm

Tickets available from reception free of charge. 

FRIDAY SOLD OUT!!!!!

A handful of tickets remaining for Thursday.
