The One and Only Ivan

The One and Only Ivan - The One and Only Ivan
The One and Only Ivan
Year 4 have been performing their theatre promenade of The One and Only Ivan this week.
The show has been very much student-led. Students read the book, produced their own play scripts for each part of the story, used their Art and Design Technology skills to make props, turned their classrooms into a stage and even learned all about the Rainforest (where the real one and only Ivan was born).
Students created their own dance moves and drumming sequences, working collaboratively and creatively to produce the finale of the show.
It has been astounding to watch how Year 4 have applied these skills with confidence as they performed in front of a variety of audiences. It has also been amazing to witness their resilience when things haven’t gone to plan.
Well done, Year 4! You should be immensely proud of yourselves.
