Try telling a child what school used to be like in Mum and Dad’s (or even their grandparents’) day and they’d never believe you! Well, here’s an opportunity to let them experience it for themselves and also provide a nostalgic trip for those who can remember when free school milk came in bottles! When navy-blue knickers were every schoolgirl’s must-have accessory! When a swish of the cane awaited any child who pushed their luck! When school photographs were taken with cameras that contained film and everyone learned to read with ‘Janet & John’. But although a lot has changed since then, one thing stays the same … the one thing that is celebrated in this fantastic new musical … school can be a lot of fun! |

'I am doing this play myself in a month (so yes I am 11). I think the set up of the play is good, and the songs are either funny or touching... which I think is good! Thank you for letting me have an opinion!'
