I wanted to acknowledge all the hard work, creative thinking and innovation showcased by Year 3 in their show, “I Wonder”,  this week.

Last night’s performance was outstanding, and the children were stunning in every respect.

I challenge any school to produce a performance with such original, authentic and child initiated outcomes. An example of concept/enquiry based learning at its best.

Thank you to everyone involved in supporting the Year 3 children to excel – the year 3 team, primary learning technologies team, primary music team, our amahs /general staff et al.

Sincerely,

Mr Tough

Dear All

I was absolutely blown away by the incredible Year 3 show performance yesterday evening. What an incredible, creative and original performance which was so clearly student led.

It was wonderful to see the children shine and the look of delight on their faces when taking their final bow was so reflective of how proud they were of their achievement. I am well aware that this could never have happened without your support and guidance so wanted to thank everyone involved in supporting the students in their learning journey and making the performance possible.

I will aim to come and visit the children today to thank them, but please do reiterate to them how amazed I was that children of such a young age could put together such a spectacular performance!

We absolutely loved the show today, thank you so much for inviting us. We thought the variety of performance was quite incredible;  from the digitally enhanced newsroom to the wonderful song choices that we were able to sing-a-long to.

The water effects from the tsunami, the dancing, the tidal wave and the bubbles added a realistic feel to the show.

The dancing was exceptional and we loved the explosive volcanic ending!! KA-BOOM!!

Lots of love and excitement,

Y4CC

We thought your show was incredible. The sound and light effects were impressive and the show went smoothly. Your creativity shone through with your use of instruments, material, projectors...
We loved how the thunderstorm built up to a crescendo. The movement of the tectonic plates was realistic and imaginative. The news reports were humorous and we especially loved the action. Break a leg for your next 2 performances!

The children in Y1AC just LOVED your show. They learned so much. Some of their favourite parts were; the volcano, "It made my heart start racing!" the Cathay Pacific part, "My Dad is a pilot for that Cathay Pacific." and they all loved the glowing parts! Brilliant job. You should all be so proud of yourselves! Mrs Smits and Y1AC

Dear Year 3,

I just wanted to congratulate you on an outstanding show today. Y5JH bounded back into the class picking out all their favourite parts. Each year you knock it out the park and this one was once again up there with the best! The rain at the beginning was so atmospheric and the volcano scene was a dynamic triumph: a super effective and innovative mix of tech, props and environmental disaster. Most importantly though the children looked like they were loving every minute.

Well played everyone, so much fun.

Jonny & Y5JH

Sunflower class absolutely LOVED your performance this morning. What a fantastic show, filled with energy, enthusiasm and gripping action!

Sunflowers really enjoyed the whole performance stating: ''I liked all the little lights in the dark bits'', ''The Volcano was going Brooooom!'' and ''I liked when they sang.''

The commitment you all undertook to make your performance outstanding shone from you all and it was inspiring to see the level of professionalism throughout your performance.

Good luck on the big night! Well done again for an exciting and vibrant performance. Thank you for being such brilliant role models to the Early Years children.

Seaside class thought it was an amazing performance. The year 3 students obviously enjoyed themselves; they smiled as they sang and danced and delivered their lines with confidence. It was wonderful to see all the students being actively involved throughout the entire performance. The sound effects, the lights and the music and of course all those thought provoking questions really made us think about our planet earth. Congratulations; your parents are going to love it. All the year 3 students deserve to feel extremely proud. Super well done.
Here are some quotes from the children, "I thought it was a real earthquake,". "I loved all of it," "Mr Loran fell out of the window, that was funny!"

Good luck on the night!

Dear all in Year 3,

What a fabulous show! It was absolutely phenomenal. You took us on a magical journey through our active planet and answered so many huge questions for us in such a mesmerising way.

You captivated the audience (which is a huge achievement with many of them being so little!), and brought to life how powerful our Earth is through dance, music, digital technology and many other creative ways.

Thank you all so much for the huge amount of time and effort that has gone into your performance today.

Have a wonderful weekend and rest-up ready for a big week of shows next week – your families will be amazed and inspired at your many talents!

Thank you so much for inviting me; I loved every second!
