Literacy Week - Grand Finale

March 01, 2014
Literacy Week concluded with a joyful dress up day and a very special whole school assembly. Pupils and staff clearly relished the opportunity to dress as their favourite characters and the school hall filled with colourful costumes as children gathered for afternoon assembly. Mr Emes began by presenting blue house with the literacy quiz trophy before handing over to his staff.

The hall erupted with laughter as our Mad Hatter (Mr Pinkham) took to the stage to lead his colleagues in a Hacton style performance - 'Cinderella in Wonderland'. Cheering, applause and suspense characterised the afternoon's proceedings, as the Mad Hatter led the children and staff through a magical world full of our favourite classic story characters: Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, Smee, Hook and the Lost Boys; Dorothy; Cinderella; Harry Potter and many more. Despite some heckling from an Ugly Sister, the play continued with the audience helping to control the fate of the characters in the story. As events unfolded, Cinderella claimed a pricey pair of Louboutin shoes and was aided by Brave Bart (pirate turned model) who showed his true courage in defeating the evil Captain Hook. To cheers from the audience, the Mad Hatter concluded the narrative by tying up loose ends in order to ensure that all the characters lived 'happily ever after'.

Thank you to parents and pupils for some brilliant costumes and to Literacy Co-ordinator, Mr Pinkham, for organising a fantastic week of activities enjoyed by pupils and staff across the school.
