Annie: heart-warming and hilarious

On the nights of 4 to 7 July, weeks of planning and commitment by dozens of students and staff culminated in a remarkable production of Annie; the classic rags-to-riches musical set in 1930s America.

The cast was headed by two "Annies" (Gabriella Gonzalez-Bello and Shona Buwu) taking it in turns to play the central character of the little orphan girl. Strong performances from Ben Hoenes as Oliver Warbucks, Lilia Grossmith (Lily St. Regis) and Grace Offen (Daniel "Rooster" Hannigan) were impressive highlights amongst the energetic choreography and thoroughly entertaining scenes featuring a large and dedicated cast.

Olympic celebration at Quex Park

The year sevens joined pupils from all over Thanet to take part in the Thanet Schools Olympic and Paralympic Celebration event at Quex Park on 28 June.

Our participants took part in three workshops throughout the event - two creative and a physical activity.
At lunchtime, wearing black tee-shirts, we helped to form one of the Olympic Rings for the attempted world record for the greatest number of people singing the Olympic song composed by R Dickinson from St Peter's Primary school (we await confirmation that the record was broken).

It was a great day and our students were a credit to Dane Court.

Come on Team GB, we are all behind you!
