On Thursday evening, a group of yr9 to yr12 Townsend students and staff went to see ‘The Ocean at the End of the Lane’ at the Noel Coward Theatre.

The staff and students had a lovely evening out, enjoying the unique and unusual theatre production. The production was about a young boy’s journey through a series of magical and terrifying events, which uncovers a magical world! Thank you to Mrs Coates for organising the theatre trip!
