Practice Makes Progress
As the end of year school show approaches, excitement has been building among students in all grades. They have been working hard on their pieces, making sure they are ready to take the stage and give their best performance. The school has been focusing on good performance practice, with topics like microphone technique, stage presence, and choreography becoming more and more important. The students have been learning how to use microphones effectively, how to project their voices, and how to create a powerful stage presence that will captivate the audience.
The Grade 5s and 6s have been attending their last few Steel Pan workshops, perfecting their skills for the final performance. Meanwhile, the Grade 3s and 4s have been editing lyrics and auditioning for solos in their own song, “Cayman Forever”. They have been working hard to ensure that their performance is flawless and memorable.
The Grade 2s have been studying cultural songs of the Cayman Islands, such as “Munzie Boat”, to learn more about our island heritage and culture.
The Grade 1s have been re-writing famous nursery rhymes to make them more relevant to our island. This has been a fun and creative way for them to learn about Caymanian culture and practice their writing skills.
Some classes are completely ready for the show, while others are starting new topics. The Grade 5s and 6s, for example, have upgraded from ukuleles to guitars for the final term. This will give them a chance to learn new skills and showcase their talents in an exciting new way.

Overall, the end of year school show promises to be a spectacular event, thanks to the hard work and dedication of the students and teachers. Everyone is looking forward to seeing the amazing performances that the students have prepared for us. It will be a great opportunity to celebrate Caymanian culture and the talents of our students.
