Babes in the Wood Panto
This week 33 students went to The Playhouse Nottingham to watch the pantomime, Babes in the Wood.
Everyone had a great time and loved all the jokes, dancing and music that the pantomime had to offer.
As an extra surprise, 3 Ash Lea students were invited on stage to help with the final song and received Goody bags to take home.
A big thanks to FOALS who provided a coach for the trip.
