Annie - show 1 done! Our primary schools enjoyed watching our live dress run this morning, and our first performance was a huge success! Guess who was the star of the show…. 🐕🤩

Annie Lighting plot day! This is always one of our favourite days in a show run - the moment when a show starts looking less like a rehearsal and more like a real production. Not long now to grab your tickets… https://t.co/rPvlvtWMnK 🐕🇺🇸

A huge well done 👏🏻👏🏻 to our Music department who hosted an event this week which saw musicians from local primary schools from Years 5&6 plus students from Toynbee playing together in Thornden Hall. They created a wonderful sound together!

Ice Skating in Central Park. The sun is shining and the skyscrapers in the background look beautiful! Part of the park was closed for filming on a set so we’re hoping to be in the background of the next episode of FBI 🤞🏼🤞🏼
