The Speech and Drama classes that our students were involved in at the Eastbourne Music and Arts Festival at CAUSEWAY SCHOOL, were extremely successful. Our students did exceptionally well and all shone brightly winning a huge range of medals and trophies which was wonderful. But more importantly what we all notice every year is the kindness and support the students give each other which matters the most and sums our group up. The adjudicator was particularly encouraging this year and very impressed by the work of our students, she said ‘I have been to many festivals over 30 years and this is the highest standard of technique I have ever seen!’ What an incredible compliment to all our teachers, helpers and students.

On March 29th, 10 of our eldest students are performing in Rhys Clarke’s hilarious farcical play ‘The Genius’ at Printers Playhouse at 3pm and 6pm. The MAGLER BAND will be opening this event at 2pm also at Printers Playhouse. Tickets will be limited and will be on sale soon from Printers Playhouse.
