Props
We would be grateful if you have any of the following props at home that we could borrow:

  • Hat stand
  • Baskets with handles (For market sellers and bird lady)
  • Old fashioned weighing scales.
  • Old fashioned telephone.
  • Suitcase.
Tickets
Tickets will be on sale from Monday 29th June.  They are £2 each and limited to 2 per pupil at first. They can be purchased from Mrs Rees and Yr 6 ticket team in their classroom throughout the day.

If you require any help with costumes or have any questions please don't hesitate to contact the school or your child's class teacher.  The pupils are working very hard to learn songs and lines at present. I am sure it is going to be a show to remember.

Thank you for your continued support
