MAGICAL INSPIRING “SUPERBIA”  
Many students enjoyed a wonderful performance of puppetry by visiting puppeteer Richard Hart on Wednesday morning. Richards clever use of sets, lighting and colour created a three dimensional suburban world in which the “Dreamers Family” investigate simple ways to make their house more energy and water efficient.

Year 2 students wrote recounts of the show.  Here are some examples of their work:

“Today the school went down to the hall and watched the puppet show. It was called Superbia and it was about a boy that invents things. It was good.”
Sophia Mack

“Today we went to watch a show called ‘Superbia’ and it was funny.”
Ethan McCosker 

“We watched a show called Superbia. It was about a boy called Dreamer. He liked to invent stuff. But his favourite was a duck because it could bring different parts of the world into the house. It was hilarious.”
Petah Butler 

“Today the school went to the hall to see a puppet show. It was called ‘Superbia’. It was about a family and their neighbours wanting to destroy their house and make it into a car park. Mrs Dreamer said NO!. Dreamer invented lots of things. There were lots of puppets. It was funny.”
