Let your light shine through family, friendship and faith
“Enabling our whole school community to flourish and let their light shine, preparing them for their role as gentle and humble agents for change in the world we share.”
Key Stage 2 Performances of Peter Pan
Our summer performances from KS2 will take place on Tuesday 15th July at 1.45pm (Doors will open at 1.20pm) and at 6.15pm on Wednesday 16th July (Doors will open at 5.45 pm).
In 1929, J M Barrie unexpectedly and generously gifted his copyright of Peter Pan to Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Therefore, tickets will be £3.50 this year and proceeds will be split between Great Ormond Street Hospital and Barlaston First School, as part of our vision to be agents of change. If you are interested in donating further, you can visit:
https://www.gosh.org/the-childrens-cancer-centre/
Tickets will, as usual, be initially restricted to 2 per family per performance. A waiting list will operate for all those who would like more. Please contact the office for extra ticket requests.
Reports
Your child’s report will be sent out after school next Wednesday (9th July).
