Fund Raising Cabaret Evening a Great Success!!

Our competition students took part in a cabaret evening  raising funds for the

This is to be used towards plans to improve and extend the facilities which will benefit our school greatly.

The night was a great success and the audience have given rave reviews about the standard of work being performed by our students.

Our competition groups are often used at events, so if your child is interested speak to a teacher!
