Suffolk Festival of the Performing Arts
19 Oct 16
Woodbridge and Abbey pupils achieved extraordinary results in this year’s Suffolk Festival of Performing Arts, almost seeming to sweep the board at times. Meanwhile there are almost too many highlights to select by way of an appetite-raiser, but I will have a go by congratulating in particular those who took first places, cups and trophies (many of them more than one!): Lily Cook, William Cook, Tom Evans, Amber Franklin, Oliver Laxton, Christopher Long, Chloe Macmillan, Caitlyn Maggs, Sophia Mattar, Imogen Melrose, James Phelan, Sasha Reid, Evelyn Saunders (overall most promising speech performer), Alexander Sharratt (overall senior speech champion), Alice Sharratt (overall junior speech champion), and Sebastian Ward.
