Teacher Emma Bell and the students are really looking forward to this performance, organised through the school Expressive Arts Committee.

In this touring theatre production, the history of humans and our relationship with trees grows from five overlapping and interwoven stories.
Travelling through time, literature and our family trees, this heart-warming production by Slingsby's Flying Squad digs into the roots and climbs through the branches of scientific knowledge and ancient and personal stories of trees and how they shape our lives, cultures and future.
Incorporating Slingsby's internationally renowned theatre techniques of shadow, light-play, song, live music, monologue and miniatures, This Tree is a Story is designed to tour into schools and small community halls bringing all the magic of theatre to you, wherever you are.
