From Tonight - The Wiz
02 December 2009
Bedford High School is thrilled to be presenting the wonderfully 'feel good' musical "The Wiz" this week in the Theatre.
Based on "The Wizard of Oz" this version rings with the sounds of Tamla Motown and will have audiences dancing in their seats!
With a live band, gorgeous visual images and vibrant choreography, this all-singing all-dancing show is just the way to lift the gloom of a winter's evening - or Saturday afternoon.
Bring the whole family and have a great time!
Performances: Wednesday - Saturday this week (2nd - 5th December) at 7.30 pm and Saturday (5th December) at 2.30 pm.
The running time of the show including the interval is 2 hours 10 minutes.
GCSE Results
Girls have once again achieved some truly excellent results in their GCSE examinations this summer. 29% of all results were at A* grade, 57% A*-A and 80% A*-B.
Carla Barberio, Rebecca Murray, Hannah Short and Surina Taneja all achieved 10A* grades, Tessa Forbes and Chloe Scott 9A* grades, Connie Fan, Yasmin Jamil and Frances Whittaker-Wood 8A* and Emily Myrtle, Lauren Roberts and Georgia Austin Greenall 7 A* grades.
Eighteen girls were sitting their examinations having spent, in most cases, only 3 years studying in English, and yet between them they amassed results which closely mirrored the overall percentages: 21% A*, 54% A*-A and 76% A*-B.
Although I am sad that our boarders are unable to progress to Bedford Girls' School for their Sixth Form studies, I am delighted that most of our very top achievers will be going on to take A level or IB courses there.
I wish every girl who left Bedford High School at the end of Upper 5 the very best of luck for their future studies.
