This term's choral event with Music for Everyone featured Blast Off! - a short musical telling the story of a school threatened with closure whose pupils attempt to save it with a trip in to space to bring back Jupiter Rock! This wasn't my favourite selection, but did include a range of puns and wider cultural references that we were able to talk through together, and the accompanying selection of songs from The X Factor included Hannah Montana's The Climb, a favourite of Madi's and 'You Raise Me Up', which I can't believe any Mother could watch her child's choir perform without a tear in her eye!
But before heading off for rehearsals, Madi left Nottinghamshire Performing Arts School early and dashed over to Morrison's at Mansfield to take part in a fundraising bag pack. She really enjoys these, and with her friend Holly, was one of the few Rainbows to take part at previous events. This was a joint Guiding/Scouting event though and had a good turnout, and even better for me was a chance meet up with Amanda, whose previously HE daughter returned to school about the same time as JK, for a coffee, chat and catchup in the cafe.
