Hansel and Gretel

Not your typical "Hansel and Gretel" story, we had hungry birds nibbling all the bread crumbs, talking trees warning us to stay out of the forest, robbers that tried to kidnap the children and then goblins that lured the children to eat at the witches house! Our narrators also doubled as dancing lollies. 
Fantastic performances by the Year 1 - 4 students, directed by Cherie Livingstone.
Thank you to all the parents and ex-students that created costumes, painted sets, and found props, your help was truly appreciated.
