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!

23 Prep pupils had a fantastic time at the Southend Borough Gymnastics Competition this week. The children worked hard to show precision and skill across all four areas: bars, beam, vault, and floor and collected 3 Golds, 17 Silvers and 3 Bronze medals. Iris also scored the highest mark in the competition overall.

Miss Fox was really proud of the standard of gymnastics performed by the pupils and how well they worked at the event.
