Hair Raising Start to the Term!




Kensington Lower Primary class started Term 2 in style. They performed an improvisation called " A Shock for Emma". The scene took place in a hairdressers so the children took on different roles eg receptionist, hairdressers, clients , nail ladies etc. All was going so well until poor Emma who asked for a perm ended up with a bright blonde frizz! The children really enjoyed acting as mini adults.The improvisations help develop communication skills , multiple sentence flow and stage techniques but above all they are FUN!
