The deposit of £5.00 should be paid before Half Term, 27 May 2011.

Anyone who wants to go on the coach should see Ms. Gott before Half Term.

Pupils who have paid their deposits for the CEPA Liverpool visit must now pay the rest of the visit money or risk losing their places. Please see Mr. DeCourcey or Mr. Morley in the CEPA office in the next week to ensure that you have paid in full.

We have been delighted with the response for our forthcoming ‘Tales from the Midnight Mangroves’ production on 24 June and as a result we have increased our number of performances for primaries to 23 June too. Many thanks to all the primary schools that have supported us and we look forward to seeing you soon. Tickets for the evening show have become available this week and are priced at £3.00 each. The performances take place from 7.00pm until 8.00pm. Tickets are available in advance only from the CEPA office.

Drama practical rehearsal sessions have been organised for Year 11 students to complete their final practical pieces. Pupils in Year 11 undertaking BTEC Drama should ensure that all coursework is complete and arrange a time to meet with Mr. DeCourcey or Ms. Gott as soon as possible.
