Boksburg Upper Primary class having a ball!

The Boksburg Lower and Upper primary classes,held at The Boksburg Methodist Church, had great fun performing a " Mime to Music" called "The Marionettes" . The students acted out the ballroom scene of Cinderella but had to move like puppets. The students could only communicate the story through their body and facial expressions. Lindsey Fyfe their wonderful teacher had taught them the movement skills required over the previous two weeks. We even had the two ugly sisters and the horrible step mother dancing together in order to get Prince Charming's attention!
