What's On?
Pipers Corner Arts Centre Theatre
Introduction
An exciting new academic year means an equally busy Autumn Term with regards to productions, shows and events here at Pipers.
We are delighted that our Arts Centre is not only used for our first-class Performing Arts, but also includes a range of informative parent partnership events, as well as expertled presentations from senior staff and social events for parents and staff.
We look forward to seeing more how our students take opportunities beyond the stage, as they gain skills and self-confidence which they will take through the entirety of their School life and beyond.
