The world of Hans Christian Anderson, the great Danish writer of stories for children - came to life this morning when we were treated to a performance by the Manchester Actors Company.
The play brought together some of his best loved stories including: The Ugly Duckling;
Thumbelina; The Emperor's New Clothes and The Little Mermaid.
The company of three actors delighted the whole school with their performance which was at times funny, sad and dramatic.
"It was amazing how they were able to play so many characters!" said Ross. Everyone agreed that the performance had been a great way to start our day and will provide lots of stimulus for our Literacy work in the future.

I certainly enjoyed it.
