Written and directed by Heather Jenvey, a Year 4 Form Teacher, 'Clipsie's Way' gave all the Prep School the opportunity to appear on stage. There were Fireflies and Glow-worms in Year 3, the dragon Clipsie in Year 5 and Year 8's villainous Ombre, in his sinister lair. The musical production provided audiences with a spectacular show on three nights at the end of the Spring Term.

Once upon a time, long ago, before books were even printed, boys and girls gazed at the beautiful star patterns in a brilliant night sky and imagined that these related to marvellous and exciting tales. The Story Teller in such a time was a much loved and revered wise man who could read the heavens and entertain his listeners with wonderful narratives that were passed down, by word of mouth, from generation to generation. Many of these stories reflect the eternal struggle between good and evil with which we all have to contend.

Clipsie's Way is such a tale. It is set somewhere between Sunny Ville and Shadow Land in a place where bugs and beetles talk (and this is not considered to be at all surprising); where human beings communicate with Solaria the God of the Sun and his beautiful consort Laluna, Princess of the Moon; where Ombre the Shadow Caster and his henchmen plot to abduct Laluna and enmesh the world in a web of darkness…. and where the world can be righted by a gentle dragon whose heart is filled with love and compassion.
