Moana Year 6 Musical

There is a buzz throughout Year 6 this week with the girls busily putting their final touches for this Friday night’s performance of Moana. Ms Lanneke Jones and her team of musicians have been rehearsing with our talented Year 6 students in the Great Hall in preparation.

We look forward to seeing you this Friday 3 November 6pm in the Great Hall with this wonderful production of Moana.
