Gambia, an AMAZING country, until next time….!
We have just enjoyed our final evening meal together at the hotel and now there is live entertainment for the students to enjoy.

After a looooong day of travelling, we all arrived safely in The Gambia. Students did exceptionally well, considering how sleep deprived we all were by the end of the day! The day finished off with dinner and some fantastic live entertainment, which saw our students moving and grooving to the beats!
On the last day of a very long Autumn term, Mrs Sevier was delighted to make a special delivery to The Mary Stevens Hospice in the form of a large donation for this worthy charity.
Students of The Earls raised well over £2000. Donations from Christmas Jumper Day, the collection at The Carol Service and sponsorship for the reindeer run all contributed.
It was fantastic to see students so willing to contribute and give during the festive period.
A huge thank you to all students involved!
This impressive, colourful, musical masterpiece, with its remarkable puppetry was thoroughly enjoyed by all the students and staff alike. We all left the theatre utterly thrilled by this musical theatre experience. The students on the trip were a delight and were complimented on their excellent behaviour by members of the public.
A Year 10 students’ thoughts on The Lion King trip:
The production started at 7.30pm and ended at 10.00pm at the Birmingham Hippodrome. We took the coach to the theatre from school. It was good vibes, everyone was laughing and anticipating the amazing show we were about to watch.
Picture of the character Scar
The lights and costume reflected each character perfectly. Scar was portrayed as bone like to represent his bitter and cold attitude. Sharp claws and spikes to show his ruthless acts like Mufasa’s death. Scar’s movements were quick and sharp to portray his character.
Picture of Simba and Nala
Nala and Simba, their dance moves were quick and fluent to show their love when they are together and when they are apart their movements are slower and softer.
