Parent days take off!

5..4..3..2..1..LIFT OFF


We are well into our parent days and our Lower Primary classes have been entertaining their parents and family with their movement skills. The mime to music"The Astronauts" had the parents enthralled whilst they saw their kids travel through space, move in slow motion and encounter a monster!

The children then had their parents in stitches

when they presented their structured improvisation "The Sleep Over" which ended in a pillow fight much to the horror of the lady of the house. The children love dressing up for their parents and showing them what happens in drama classes.
