🏛️✨ Badger Hill Presents… Night at the Museum ✨🏛️

What an incredible experience a group of our Key Stage 2 children had at NETFEST, performing on stage at The Glasshouse in Gateshead!

After weeks of hard work and dedication, including lots of after-school ...rehearsals, our children were finally ready to bring their performance to life.

Our theme was ‘Badger Hill Presents… Night at the Museum’, with Inara taking on the role of the Nightguard, complaining that nothing exciting ever happens in a museum at night. Little did she know what was about to unfold. Suddenly, the museum statues came to life, with Ancient Egyptians, Ancient Greeks, Stone Age people and Romans filling the stage with singing, dancing and incredible energy.

It was a very long day, with rehearsals throughout the afternoon followed by an evening performance, but every single child was absolutely fantastic. We couldn't be prouder of their enthusiasm, confidence and commitment.

As part of our Element enrichment offer, opportunities like NETFEST are so important. Performing on a professional stage in front of a large audience is an experience our children will remember for years to come. It was also wonderful to watch the fantastic performances from other schools across Northern Education Trust and celebrate the talent within our Trust.

A huge thank you to Mrs Morgan and Mr Brown for all their hard work preparing the children for the performance, and to Mrs Morgan, Mr Brown and Miss Rudd for giving up their time to accompany and support the children on the day.

Every child also received a special NETFEST T-shirt to keep as a memento of this wonderful experience.

🍕 Little imaginations, big learning!

Our Nursery children love bringing their ideas to life through role play and one of our chefs has certainly been busy in the kitchen. 👨‍🍳

From choosing toppings and preparing his pizza to popping it in the oven and serving it up ...there’s so much learning happening through play.

Activities like these help children develop their communication and language skills, build confidence and grow in independence, all while having lots of fun. ❤️
