Rafferty (Year 5) is yet again showing his exceptional talent for ballet, performing the role of Mamilius in the Royal Opera House production of The Winter’s Tale He was fortunate enough to be invited to do the curtain call at the end of the opening night standing alongside the main company cast and Principal Dancers (a rare opportunity for children, so a special moment). Rafferty has received very positive feedback on his role and he even had a brief mention in the Telegraph’s review of the ballet.

On Wednesday 22nd May, The Winter’s Tale will be live streaming to many local cinemas across the UK. Rafferty will be on stage that night with his cast, enabling friends and family to take the opportunity to see him perform. Please use the link to book tickets; https://www.roh.org.uk/tickets-and-events/the-winters-tale-in-cinemas-details.

As ever, St Michael’s is so proud of Rafferty and his ever-increasing list of achievements and we look forward to watching the performance on Wednesday.

After winning the ISA National Dance Competition last November with their lyrical piece to the song Changes, the St Michael’s dance troupe were invited to attend the ISA Annual Conference in Birmingham this week to perform it again in front of Headteachers attending from all over the country. It was a prestigious ask as there were only three other performances alongside our own. We received many lovely comments about the children who had travelled for hours to and from Birmingham and performed brilliantly.

Thanks so much to Miss Cook and her dancers. Well done!

Have a lovely weekend everyone!

For the fourth year in a row, the pupils of St Michael’s who took the LAMDA exam found out today that they had surpassed themselves and had ALL achieved a Distinction; an incredible achievement!

Mrs Thomas and Mrs Russell said, ‘We are so delighted for the children, they have been a pleasure to direct. To see their commitment, enthusiasm and creativity pay off with Distinctions all round, is a testament to their hard work. We are extremely proud of them.’

This afternoon, Miss Tucker’s themed concert ‘Along Came Man’ was a wonderful display of the children’s musical talent that St Michael’s is so well known. The singing was excellent, supported initially by the Senior Orchestra and then by Luke from Year 6 who did a sterling job of light management and props. Thank you to our percussion team too who always add the atmospherics. It was a powerful story about protecting our Earth and very apt with Earth Day next month.

Well done everyone.
