Chaplin's Theatre Productions

We had been given the last minute opportunity of Chaplin's Travelling Pantomime Company visiting the school on our first day back in 2012. Chaplin's have performed in the school before and they have been extremely popular with the children. The company produce a very professional performance and we were lucky to have had the opportunity to invite them back to Sunderland High School once again. This year, their production was ‘Jack and The Beanstalk' which the children thoroughly enjoyed.

The cost for your child to attend this performance was subsidised by the school at £4 and letters were sent out about this at the end of last term. If you have still not sent in payment then we would be very grateful if you could forward the correct amount, either in cash or a cheque made out to Sunderland High School by Monday 9^th January at the very latest.
