Pupils at Diggers Rest Primary School will be heading under the sea next week when they take to the stage in a sold-out performance of The Little Mermaid Junior.
The pupils have spent the past six months preparing for the school’s inaugural whole school production, which will be held at the Slovenian Club on Thursday, August 16.
Arts co-ordinator Taryn Paterra said the musical has been a massive effort.
“The children have been dedicating six months of their time to this,” she said.
“Diggers Rest Primary School has always been such a small school, which meant that something so spectacular as this has never been possible before. As our numbers are rapidly growing, we now have enough students and staff expertise to pull something like this all together.”
