Principal Elaine Bird said: “Ashleigh was brilliant – she kept the students enthralled throughout the workshops, giving them plenty to work on including acting improvised scenes and working on songs and dances from the musical Wicked.

“There was also a Q&A session with very active audience participation – the children were all really keen to find out more about Ashleigh’s career and how to break into the profession.”
