Dear Parents/Carers

Matilda Performance Evening

We are writing to formally invite you to the Year 8 Matilda Performance Evening on Monday 14th December or Wednesday 16th December in the Main Hall.

The performance slots have been spread over the course of two evenings and we hope that you are all able to come and enjoy watching some of the fantastic work and effort your son/daughter has been involved in this term and indeed over the year so far! The slots are as follows:

Doors Open / Performance Time / 14th December / 16th December
5.00pm / 5:30pm / 8B1 and 8B2 Group 1 / 8B6 and 8B5 Group 4
6.00pm / 6:30pm / 8B4 and 8B3 Group 2 / 8A4 and 8A3 Group 5
7.00pm / 7:30pm / 8A1 and 8A2 Group 3 / 8A6 and 8A5 Group 6

On the night of the performance the students will remain at school so will need a packed meal on their night. Students will leave with you as soon as the performance has finished. It is also important that they remember to bring their costume with them on the day.

We are aware that many of you may have other commitments on this evening and the time slots may not be wholly accommodating, but we now cannot change any of the time slots for the performances. We do apologise for any inconvenience caused, but as you can imagine, it is a difficult task to satisfy every request for the whole of Year 8.

The tickets are £2.50 each and can be purchased online by following the link below. If you have two children in different forms performing in different time slots, you will only need to purchase one ticket and I will reserve tickets for the other performance slot free of charge. If there are any problems regarding the ticket purchase, please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss these.

This is a huge project and the first of its kind on this scale at the Stanway School, so we are all very excited! It’s not only about giving real theatrical opportunities to the Year 8’s but more importantly showing off their work to you, regardless of ability. We want to celebrate their work in the Performing Arts in a most impressive style! We look forward to seeing you there.

Yours faithfully

Aaron Orchard

Assistant Head teacher
