Year 6 were proud to present their end of year production called "Olivia" a musical production of a female-led adaptation of the classic story "Oliver!". The play features a young girl named Olivia who navigates a world of orphans, workhouses, and other familiar characters, offering a fresh perspective on the original story. It is set in Victorian times, and traces the steps of Olivia, from downtrodden orphan to star of the stage. On her journey to the bright lights of London, she is befriended by Eliza Doolittle, Fagin and The Artful Dodger. The boys, however, are not overlooked, with splendid cameos for George Bernard Shaw, Ebenezer Scrooge, Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson, along with chorus parts including Fagin's gang. This feel good show was full of wit and humour both in the script and the songs which were catchy, lyrical, and full of gusto. Well done to all involved in the production – it was a resounding success.
Year 2 spent a wonderful 2 days developing their geographic knowledge of Japan. They did some amazing Japanese writing, learnt some Japanese words including counting to 10 and created their own origami projects. They learned all about Japanese food, trying sushi rice, crackers and seaweed and had a go at using chopsticks (to pick up sweeties-yum!). They were lucky enough to try on some authentic Japanese outfits which were very beautiful. Whitton's best Ninja came to talk to them about the art of Ninjutsu and one of our year 6 karate champions gave them an amazing karate lesson. Everyone loved getting immersed in the Japanese culture and only wish they could have done a school trip there!!
