Year 3 & 4 Take to the Stage for “What Connects Us?” Showcase

3 February 2026

Year 3 and 4 pupils delivered a confident, feel-good performance in EEMR as part of a showcase titled “What Connects Us?”, celebrating kindness, connection and the school’s shared values.

The event featured poetry performances from Antonia, Max and Claudia, who shared work developed during Speech and Drama lessons. Their readings were followed by a whole-class production, a play written especially for the children and inspired by the book Lost and Found Cat. The story focused on themes of kindness, helping people we don’t know, and reflecting the values that shape the school community.

The showcase ended on a musical note with pupils performing “Be More Kind” by Frank Turner, a fitting finale that echoed the message running through the entire programme.

Parents praised the performance, commenting on how smoothly the production flowed and how confidently the children performed throughout.

Special thanks were given to Mr Iles and Mrs North for their support in bringing the showcase together, with a violin performance from Miss Short accompanying the final song.
