Keep practising P5!

Roger from Scottish Opera came to visit Sciennes on Thursday 26th April and was impressed by the number of pupils that are word perfect. The teachers have worked so hard with all the classes to get them ready for their big performance on Tuesday 8th May.

Scottish Opera will return on the 8th and rehearse the pupils in the morning. Two tickets are available for each pupil on WisePay for the performance between 2.30pm and 3.15pm.

It is really important that you know all the words off by heart by Tuesday 8th because that will let you concentrate on the choreography and costumes on the day, so keep practising P5! You're doing really well!

The Big Bang Show!

SCOTTISH OPERA IN P5

Music by Marion Christie
Lyrics by Ross Stenhouse

The Big Bang Show! takes performers on a whistle-stop tour of the creation of the universe and explores the wonderful world of ENERGY. Three groups represent the different types of energy - wind, water and sun, fossil fuels and nuclear power. Each led by their own champions, they debate which is best, until Gaia (Mother Earth) points out that unless humans begin to take real reponsibilty for their use of fossil and nuclear powers, the Earth will die. She urges them to learn the lessons of natural powers while there is still time...

The Advance Workshop is this week and then there is a rehearsal and performance to families on Tuesday 8th May.
