WGS PERFORMING ARTS DEPARTMENT 2018 - 2023

Director Of Performing Arts

Dear Kimberley (never Kim!),

My favourite memory of a show is difficult to pinpoint because I have enjoyed them all.

I'm also sorry you won't be around as I burst into your room with some random query at any given point, I'm not sure many other people will give the same measured and gracious response. Yours, with my best wishes and heartfelt thanks, Phillip

Teacher Of Music And Maths

Kim, over the past few years, your dedication and commitment to Performing Arts at The Grove has resulted in the rejuvenation of stage productions, whether musicals or plays, inside the theatre or out It has been a delight and pleasure to work with you directly on "Bugsy Malone" and "School of Rock" It has been wonderful to sit in the audience and watch the students perform to such a high standard, with such enthusiasm and total commitment. This is all down to you!

As you leave The Grove, there are two enormous shoes to be filled. I shall miss our chats about the shows currently showing in London or elsewhere, sharing our love of musical theatre I wish you all the very best as your move onto pastures new, albeit still with a vested interest still here at WGS with PQA. Thank you and Хαιρετε . Andrew

Teacher Of Drama

Kim, what a ray of sunshine you are. it was a delight working with you at The Grove… I am so sad to hear that you are leaving and I know that the school will miss you incredibly I absolutely loved your magical version of ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ and my ultimate favourite award goes to ‘Double Dahl’ - I remember the smiles xx thank you for letting me choreograph some of the numbers along the way. I wish you so much love as you move closer to your family … I know that you will have had a huge impact on so many students lives…remember that …lots of love, Hannah xx

Head Of Drama

Dear Kim,

Working with you this year on both Spotlight and Alice has been a dream! I'm sad that we only got to work together for one year but I'm sure we will bump into one another in the future!

Good luck- I'm certain that being with family will make all the stress of the move worthwhile! Best Wishes, Sarah

Performing Arts Technician

To Kim,

It feels like I met you only last week and now it's time to say goodbye! I couldn't have wished for a better person to welcome me to the school through School of Rock's baptism of fire and I'm so sad to see you go; we didn't get enough time to create crazy ideas!!! Bringing to life these amazing productions has been such a pleasure and I can't wait to see what you do next and hopefully catch you during a PQA Saturday at some point.

All the best, Jay

Teacher Of Drama

What an amazing time we had doing Double Dahl and Our Day Out Even if I did end up back stage with a sling!

I still remember the time that you shouted at one of my students for climbing in a bin . Good luck in your big move. Hopefully we might manage a catch up at some point. Lots of Love, Charlie
