We had a brilliant time at Pantomime today. Years 5-8 enjoyed this year’s production of Sleeping Beauty at Campus West, Welwyn Garden City. It was fantastic seeing our children fully engaged, singing, shouting and let’s not forget the booing!! The highlight, had to be the water pistols, towards the end of the performance. A great idea for our own up-and-coming theatre evening………
On 12th November, as part of their RE learning, the Year 8s attended the Sri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara in Hitchin. Pupils learnt about the history of Sikhism, the 10 Gurus, the 5 Ks and saw the Guru Granth Sahib (the Sikh Holy Book). Pupils were treated to several hymns played by the granthis (the religious leaders) and afterwards visited the food hall (Langar) for some light refreshments.
On 23rd October, as part of their RE studies, the year 11s attended a trip to Regent’s Park mosque. We learnt about the history of the mosque, visited the vast library and explored the exhibition halls. Pupils were able to enter the prayer hall and learn about Islamic prayer rituals.
On Friday 18th October a number of pupils who are doing an art project to contribute to theatre week visited the Henry Moore Foundation where they sketched and made models of the sculptures.
This will hopefully lead to a collaborative sculpture, which will be the centrepiece of the play.
