English Touring Opera Perform The Great Stink

6 March 2024

On Tuesday 5th March, Years 3 and 4 were visited by the English Touring Opera (ETO) for a performance of their children’s opera The Great Stink. This is part of the ETO’s series of operas about climate change and the environment, exploring water pollution and the way we dispose of sewage today.

The children enjoyed the opera greatly, and many children who were unsure about opera before the show, decided that they liked opera afterwards!
