On Wednesday 3rd December, over 100 Year 7 pupils were treated to a classic family adventure brought to the stage by the creative team behind the brilliant New Vic Christmas shows. 'The Borrowers' live happily in a perfect little home under the floorboards of a quiet old house. Young Arrietty gets itchy feet and decides to go exploring: the family's secret is out and nothing is the same again.

With magical storytelling, original music and thrilling, live-on-stage effects, the pupils enjoyed a spectacular insight into the Borrowers' hidden world.

The pupils are to be commended on their fantastic conduct at the theatre, and throughout the day, something that was acknowledged and praised by the theatre staff.
