“We had a tremendous day and also thoroughly enjoyed performing for such a large audience.”

“We were overwhelmed to received awards for excellence in Drama, Entertainment, Concept and Stage Crew.”

“Rock Challenge has also had very a positive impact on our school and has created a real buzz around the performing arts.”

“It has given our pupils a chance to work as a mixed age group team to create a piece that was technically challenging and embraced our school values.”

“We are very proud of our achievements and are already looking forward to next year.”
