Year 10 Performers Take the Stage: A Night of Talent and Triumph

2

On Tuesday, 18th February, our Year 10 IGCSE Performing Arts students took to the stage for the very first time, presenting an evening of performances. They showcased Drama Group Scripted pieces, as well as Music ensemble and solo performances, in front of an audience of parents and peers. Stepping onto the stage for many of them their first live performance takes courage, dedication, and belief in their craft. I am incredibly proud of each and every one of them for rising to this challenge with such determination. 

The journey to this moment has been one of growth and discovery. Along the way, they have learned to manage their time effectively, collaborate with others, and navigate the inevitable nerves that come with performing. Perhaps most importantly, they have experienced firsthand the power of perseverance, pushing past self-doubt to deliver something they are proud of. These lessons will stay with them long beyond this performance, shaping their confidence in whatever they choose to pursue next. 

As we continue through the academic year, I look forward to seeing them build on this experience, refining their skills and deepening their understanding of the Performing Arts. This is just the beginning of their journey, and I have no doubt they will continue to grow as creative and confident actors and musicians.
