Wonderful time this afternoon at @VictoriaParkPS1 watching year three's brilliant performance. This project is such a highlight of the year.

This week we're back at Victoria Park Primary School for Play In A Week - our creative learning project - where a whole year group devise, make and create A Play in A Week with our team of artists.
