Stars in their Eyes RESULTS
We have had a very exciting 3 days auditioning everyone for Stars in their Eyes. The quality of auditions has been fantastic. A huge congratulations to everyone who took part - it takes a lot of guts to audition. I'm not sure out of the staff team who took on the role of Simon Cowell, but we did try to make the experience as painless as possible!!
The results will be up in the PA Foyer on Friday.
Good luck!

YEAR 7 PROJECT
Last term we set Year 7 students the challenge to create a new 'junk' instrument for homework. We had some really creative ideas from students which involved recycling boxes, packaging and all sorts of different objects lying around both inside and outside the house. The instruments were displayed on Diversity Evening in March and are currently on display in the PA foyer, but just in case you haven't seen them yet we thought we would share some of them with you:
CHANGING THE NAME
For a long time we have referred to our theatre as the PA Theatre, which has never seemed the most exciting or original name. When we changed the school uniform last September taking the Downshire Crest as our logo I suggested to Mrs Cook that it would be a great opportunity to re-name the theatre in keeping with the school changes. Over Half Term Mr Fernandez worked hard to put up our new sign in the foyer naming the old 'PA Theatre' as The Downshire Theatre. Take a look next time you're in the department!
