Key Stage 1 pupils present Aladdin KIDS

The summer term was an exciting time for our Key Stage 1 pupils as they showcased their budding performance skills in a super production of Disney’s Aladdin KIDS. This special adaptation of the 1992 Disney film was tailored for young performers, providing a perfect platform for our Prep I and II pupils to shine.

In a vibrant 30-minute musical, the children brought to life the legendary tale of Aladdin, the lovable thief with a heart of gold, captivating families and friends who joined them on their magical journey. The audience was whisked away to mystical caves, enjoyed thrilling magic carpet rides and saw the clever outwitting of the evil sorcerer, Jafar, by Aladdin, Jasmine and the fast-talking, wisecracking Genie.

Mr Rooney, Head of the Prep Department, expressed his pride in the pupils’ achievements:

“Our performances continue to bring the best out of our children: improved self-confidence, public speaking skills and the ability to work in an ensemble, to name but a few. The children worked extremely hard to learn their lines and rehearsed tirelessly with our Bridgewater staff to create such an amazing spectacle.

“The production of Aladdin KIDS was not only a testament to the talent and dedication of our young performers, but also a celebration of the supportive community here at Bridgewater School. We look forward to many more performances that allow our pupils to explore their creativity and develop their skills.”

Disney’s Aladdin KIDS was presented through special arrangement with and all materials provided by Music Theatre International.

We believe that individuals count. So we are interested in what makes us all different. Not just what makes us the same.
