Glasshouse Excursion

Date: 7th May 2026

Our students had a fantastic time attending a performance of Moss Piglet, presented by Windmill Theatre Company.

The performance introduced students to the fascinating world of tardigrades—tiny but incredibly resilient creatures—through an imaginative journey from petri dishes and volcanoes to Arctic glaciers and even the moon. Featuring puppetry, choreography, live video and green screen technology, Moss Piglet was a highly engaging and creative theatre experience that our students thoroughly enjoyed.
