proud mama


We were amazed and entertained again this year by the girls schools musical. 
For such a tiny little school, the school musical production really is amazing. 
As I mentioned the children write, sing and produce all the songs for the musical and on the night the school sells the CD. I now know every song well enough to sing along to, they really are catchy...
With only parent help, some small donations from local community groups and the hard work of the kids and teachers, stage props and costumes are put together.

 Little emus shaking their tail feathers .... bless..
 the kids made all their masks and they all looked gorgeous...
I had a big kangaroo....
and a little chicken....

What an amazing experience, great confidence builder, the stuff childhood memories are made of really... All packaged up with an important message about sustainability...

It left my heart swollen with pride and some catchy little tunes stuck in my head...

Before I go - thanks so much for all your lovely lovely comments & continuing to come past White Verandah :) And a very big warm welcome to our new followers...

  2. I must ask , does ever child get to participate if they want to ? My daughter has been going to a private school for 4 years & the same children since prep get chosen to do the special parts. We were just saying this year it is disappointing more children dont get the experience while young. Like you said 'confidence building'. I love how they did so much themselves. House is looking great !
