Incredibly lucky to have spent the day with @CBeqMacD - an inspiring series of in-school workshops and choir sessions. Feeling fuelled and motivated to implement fresh ideas to renew our whole school choral framework with exciting and challenging repertoire choices.

Today, at work, I was hanging out with the inspirational children’s author, Jacqueline Wilson. When I proposed the idea of turning one of her books into a musical, she replied “GO FOR IT!”
Now, which book should I adapt for stage?
