Transition Program, Years 7 /8
Revolting Rhymes performa nee poetry THE world of performance poetry became a reality for All Saints' College Year 4 students, when they were treated to a dynamic and highly entertaining performance of Roald Dahl's Revolting Rhymes by the Year 7 English extension group. THERE were humorous versions of the traditional fairytales Jack and the Beanstalk, The Three Little Pigs, and The Ant-Eater for the Year 4s to enjoy. With great skill and dramatic poise, the Year 7s managed to master their lines and impress their audience. Incredibly 'attractive' costumes and innovative props saw the All Saints' students transform their appearance. Much to the delight of our giggling audience, Taylor Hill made a very unattractive woman, complete with bright red lipstick in his role in Jack and the Bean Stalk. For 50 minutes the classroom had an assortment of pigs, giants, wolves, little girls dressed in red armed with pistols concealed in their knickers, and precocious little boys demanding exotic pets from their parents. The Year 7s learnt how poetry could be entertaining and lots of fun to read, write and perform. Congratulations to William MacFarlane, William Todkill, William RennerShao, Hazel Titley, Claire Chaplin, Sean Ayres, Tom Hodgson, Bo Corman, Tiffany Verga, Rachel Nesaraj, Olivia Spear, Lily Tyler, Nathan Holbrook, Lashindri Wanigasekera, Taylor Hill and Megan Franey. 30
