Community performance of show
Members of the local community, residents of local residential homes and supported housing and individuals involved in local charities for the elderly are invited in June each year to a matinee 'Community Performance' of the George Watson's College S6 show.
Guests see the show and then stay for an after-show tea party with pupils involved in the show.
This has happened for years
Aims
The aims are to give local residents and people living in residential homes/supported living the opportunity to come to the school, see a high quality show and enjoy an afternoon of socialising.
Our guests are always full of gratitude but actually our staff and pupils involved often get just as much out of the afternoon - it's seen as one of the highlights of the year!
Resources
Administration - advertising, invitations, bookings, support from staff and pupils on the day.
Catering team - putting on a great spread.
No financial contribution is provided for this activity.
