THURLESTONE Primary School had a busy week last week with a performance of ’The Boy Who Climbed Into The Moon’ and Remembrance Day.

On Thursday, November 10, at Thurlestone Parish Hall, the children of the Kingsbridge Area Church School Federation - Thurlestone, Charleton and West Alvington - were all treated to a performance of ’The Boy Who Climbed Into The Moon’ by the travelling theatre company Theatre Alibi.

Deputy head of school, Jan Bosence, said: ‘The show was spellbinding and combined all of the elements that we have come to expect from this excellent company: it was highly imaginative, funny, well acted and kept over 150 children, aged between 5-11, amazed from start to finish.

‘It is such a treat to be able to bring the magic of the theatre to our children in our little rural schools.’

On Friday, November 11, All Saints’ held a special Remembrance Worship Service. The service was run by the Reverend Daniel Hartley in school where all of the children were dressed in red to commemorate Armistice Day.

The children held a minute silence at 11am and all those wearing red brought in a donation for the Royal British Legion, raising more than £100 for the charity.
