What a Show! - Spring Concert

What an amazing performance by our students for Imagine a Dragon! We were all so impressed with the energy, commitment and confidence that our students showed on stage.

A huge thank you to Mr. Daga and Miss May for leading this work, along with many other staff members and parent volunteers who supported in the background.

We did video record the performance on Thursday and we hope to have it posted to our school’s private YouTube channel soon.
