Busy end of term for Year 6
Year 6 at Tenby Junior School have certainly had a busy end of year. Last week, they performed 'The story of Orphan Annie,' with every Year 6 pupil playing a role in this famous musical. Both family and friends enjoyed a wonderful performance on two nights, with plenty of laughter and singing. Congratulations to the children who had worked hard to produce an entertaining show with some excellent acting and wonderful singing. A special thanks to Sarah Parsons and Roland Grigg, of Griggles, who helped out with many of the costumes and props for the show, as well as thanks to the parents for their support and help. Thank you also to Bruce who helped out with the lighting and sound and Penally Village Hall and Texaco for the loan of their stages. This week, the children celebrated their time at Tenby Junior School with a prize-giving afternoon followed by a prom. In the afternoon, children were presented with trophies, certificates and Records of Achievement, as a lasting memory of their time in the school. Clr. Mrs. Sue Lane, who presented the prize- winners with their trophies, spoke highly of the school, congratulating the children on all they had achieved. Casie Paxton and Ellis Morgan, the school ambassadors, gave an excellent speech on behalf of all Year 6, paying tribute to all the staff and highlighting the events they had participated in over the last year. The PTA very kindly presented the children with a W H Smith token as a goodbye gift. The children then returned to school in the evening to their prom, all dressed up! The boys' were in tuxedos and the girls' in their ball gowns, all looked extremely smart! They enjoyed a wonderful buffet kindly produced by Fiona and Lisa, the entertainment by Bongo Clive had the children dancing all night, as well as the staff. Thanks go to the PTA for all their hard-work in making the night a success, and certainly a night the children will cherish. Prize day winners were:
