A group of 60 very excited children had a trip of lifetime yesterday when they went with a group of staff to see Disney's the Lion King at the Lyceum Theatre in central London. The children were incredibly well behaved and so impressed with the staging, singing, costumes and whole performance. For some of our children, this was the first time they had every been to the theatre and we were so delighted to be able to take them!
On Thursday, as is Hazelwood tradition, the choir entertained the crowd gathered around the Christmas tree at the Palmers Green triangle as we officially welcomed in the start of the Christmas period.
The children sang lots of songs, with plenty of actions, for families to listen to and sing along with. It was a wonderful festive atmosphere which finished with the turning on of the Christmas lights.
As we mark Remembrance Day, it is important that we all, adults and children, remember the courage that was shown in order to protect and defend loved ones in the countless wars that have taken place in the last century and this one.
Once again, we were privileged to attend the Remembrance Service this morning at Broomfield Park. Thank you to Miss Bispham for organising and supporting the children to sing a selection of World War Two songs and play their instruments.
It was amazing to see so many children take part in the Class Act auditions for a chance to make the grand final at the Milfield Theatre in January.
Congratulations to everyone who took part!
