Summer Concert in Big School
The Summer Concert held in Big School, Malvern College, proved as always to be a very entertaining evening, as around 400 pupils, parents and friends attended this annual musical climax of the school year. Pre-Prep performed extracts from their Minibeast production, and the violinists from Y2 presented their version of 'Grandfather's Clock'. Soloists India (trumpet), Claire (singing) and William M. (piano) performed with great panache, as did all the instrumental ensembles and choirs from the Prep School in a wide variety of items, delighting the enthusiastic audience and so providing a happy contrast to the foul weather!

The whole is festooned with Shakespeare, poetry and improvisation - a rich ground from which this spray of summer blooms springs! A selection of these blooms ornamented the Poetry and Prose Reading and Speaking Competition and the Grandparents' Day Drama Showcase.

'Macbeth' at RSC Stratford
An enthusiastic group of Year 7 and 8 pupils went to see the new production of 'Macbeth' at the RSC's Swan Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon. Many of the pupils have been working on their own cut-down version in the weekly drama club sessions at school, so seeing 'the real thing' was particularly helpful.
