Thursday 25 March, 6.00-8.30pm (for Y9-Y13s)

We will have a large number of organisations in school who have given up their time to talk to you and your son / daughter about their options post 16 and post 18. This event is mainly aimed at year 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 to assist in future choices, ie options, college course, apprenticeships, careers etc.

ENCORE II: At the Movies

This year's performance will take place on Wednesday 17th, Thursday 18th & Friday 19th March and will be themed around the movies, featuring music, dancing and some drama all drawn from the silver screen. Well over 150 pupils will be contributing as part of the Concert band, Jazz band, Salsa band, Shout It Out, Senior Choir, Performing Arts groups, dance clubs and individually auditioned performances. There will be something for every taste: from Top Gun to Lord of the Rings; Dirty Dancing to Pirates of the Caribbean and Shrek to Schindler's List - so get your tickets now at www.friaryshop.com.


TWELFTH NIGHT

After the success of last year's sixth form performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream, we are pleased to announce that the current Year 13 Performing Arts group can present William Shakespeare's comedy Twelfth Night for one night only on Thursday 25th March. Like last year, the performance will be presented as a one-act play and contain contemporary song and dance to help convey the story.

The students will be presenting the play in a 'Brechtian' style - which will be a radical departure for the type of theatre offered publicly at The Friary. We hope you can support the students during the performance - tickets are available now for www.friaryshop.com.
