Head's Newsletter 11 December 2015

H ouse Drama 2015-16 was a roaring success. The quality of writing and standard of performing was some of the best we have seen. With plays dealing with issues as diverse as political correctness to the demise of Nigel Farage and the danger of the spy game, we were witness to some highly intelligent and satirical pieces of work. This year's judge, Rebecca Brown, who has worked for 25 years in the industry commented on the breadth of talent and the quality of drama at Tiffin, saying there were many future actors and writers amongst the performing students. In the end it came down to a mighty clash between two houses, Raleigh and KM, with the plays 'Information Withheld' and 'Britain First' respectively leading the charge. In the end Raleigh took the crown with their hysterical take on the world of spies and espionage. Fantastically written and produced by the triumvirate of Tom Mills and Will and Ollie Appleby, it really encompassed all ages in a great cast. Ollie Appleby was also triumphant as best actor with his portrayal of the unhinged 'Reg'. An all-round fantastic evening with great support from families and friends. A spectacular evening on Thursday 10 December consisted of dance performances from :  Year 11 GCSE Dance students show- casing their choreographic works as well group performance.  Year 9 Tiffin Dance Company performed choreography in progress, for the Rambert Elements project and National
