What a brilliant way to begin the new term with a theatre trip to the West End. Year 6 children were incredibly lucky to be given the opportunity to see this magnificent production with the help of Newham’s enrichment programme. 

The children’s faces lit up as the curtain rose, and the actress belted out ‘Nants antsingonyama, bagithi Baba’ From the opening number to the final showdown, the children were transfixed. 

‘ The acrobatics were amazing - how far did he fall?’ said Amira. 

‘The costumes , the songs , the set were amazing.’ Sali said

Hopefully, having this brilliant opportunity will inspire the next generation of musicians, singers, set designers and costume designers. We are all waiting with bated breath to watch the end of Year 6 production. I’m sure it will try to match the creativity and ingenuity of this fabulous West End production.
