The Lion King...

For months, the girls attended Showstoppers, an after school club, and complained about working on The Lion King. Luckily, the hard work paid off when the group performed at the school’s year-end concert. In addition to the amazing singing and dancing, the make-up, costumes and lighting were also fantastic. We stupidly left our video camera behind, but Jimmy managed to capture this video on his iPad; it doesn’t really do the performance justice, but you’ll get the gist.

Some kids wore masks, but both of ours had facepaint instead. Time ran out before Ashlynn was completed, but you can see it didn’t matter. Both girls looked great and did an awesome job dancing.

One cool aspect of this club is that it was for all grades of the school. Ashlynn doesn’t usually have much of a chance to mix with the older students, so this was a nice chance to bond with some of the Year 12 and 13 (Junior and Senior) girls.
