Opera&onal report for CentreStage, Shifnal September 2023 – July 2024 

## 2023 Winter term 

Star&ng back in the September term, we gained a few new members and started work on performances to have ready for the summer showcase. This would be our own scripted show that would encourage the groups to work together crea&ng the costumes, choreography. The young people would need to audi&on for parts and learn lines. 

We held a Christmas party at the local war memorial club. This was well received by the children and parents. We charged £3 to aGend to raise some funds for the club and cover any costs. 

We implemented a stricter process on the tuck shop &n, providing a lockable &n and regular banking of cash. 

## 2024 Spring - Summer 

We con&nued with our scripted piece for the new year. We also gained a couple of new leaders: these were very welcome as due to personal circumstances one of our leaders had to leave. This took the number of leaders to 10. 

Throughout the terms the number of children remained fairly constant with only a drop off in the final term, which we oMen get due to children moving schools, geNng older etc. 

We aGended the local Shifnal Carnival, decora&ng a float and having a great day with many of the children in the local community. This was planned and decorated by the leaders and young people with the parents giving their support to the project. It was a great opportunity to create greater connec&on with parents and the community. 

During the year we were also selected by the local council to receive funding raised by the Shifnal 10K run. It was a great privilege to be selected by the local council and a testament to the belief and community engagement that Shifnal has in us. 

Finally we put on our showcase at St Andrews church, this was well aGended by the parents and guardians of the children, where we raised funds. Costumes, videos etc. were worked on by the children.
