Meldreth Primary School www.meldreth.cambs.sch.uk As we head into the summer term, there is much to reflect upon and be thankful for in school. We have now been able to resume our enrichment activities such as the Year 3 and 4 outstanding performance of Olivia! Read on to find out what the Year 4 cast had to say! On a similar note, it has been wonderful to be able provide children with opportunities to represent our school in competitive sporting and mathematical fixtures; we have even had a skipping world-record holder coming into school! We look forward to welcoming parents and carers back into school for our Year 5 and 6 production and other events in the summer term. Lower Key Stage 2 Play Year 3 and 4 were able to perform their longawaited performance of Olivia! to pupils and parents/carers this month. With an all-star cast (including Olivia herself, Eliza Doolittle, Annie, Fagin and Dodger, and many more famous characters), we were all enthralled! We asked some of the Year 4 actors their thoughts:
How did you find performing the play? - “The play was really fun because I could show my acting skills and I had fun on stage .” (Isla Y4) - “It was interesting, exciting and nervewracking until I got to the point where I was used to it.” (Rupert Y4) - “It was exciting because we haven’t been able to perform for ages and I loved being on stage.” (Matilda Y4)
What was your favourite scene and why? - “Scene 8 because the fat lady character was dancing and accidentally fell over and it was very funny.” (James Y4) - “Scene 1 because it was the first scene anyone had done in nearly three years.” (Charlie Y4) 38
