A Buzzing, Brilliant Bee Musical

1st July 2022

Our Kisongo campus was buzzing with activity on Friday 24th June as our Key Stage 1 and EYFS students from both campuses performed 'The Bee Musical' to an audience of family and friends.

After a term of some amazing bee experiences this year, including a visit to a Bee Farm as well as introducing a stingless bee hive at our Njiro Campus, the choice of musical was easy for our Year 1 and 2 children.

Every busy bee in Mr Waxworth’s hive is eager to do their part – except for one. Poor Grumble Bee! She just wants to do something special with her life and doesn’t see the point of finding nectar and collecting pollen all day long. After all, what’s important about that?
But, when world bee colonies start collapsing and a shortage of plants means they are unable to pollinate all sorts of food types or even feed themselves, Mr Waxworth and the bees put on their thinking caps to do something about it. Will the buzz surrounding the bees’ most exciting play of the year ‘The Bee’s Knees’, help Grumble Bee to realise just how vital the work of the bee is and convince everyone else to do their part to save the bees?

The youngest member of our cast was less than 2 years old and the oldest only 7 years old, making this production quite the feat! Alongside fun and catchy musical numbers and a 'wow' moment scene change, the children performed so confidently in front of their audience.

We are so proud of you all!
