Creativity took centre stage at Leweston School's inaugural Creative Arts Scholars' Showcase at The Sherborne on 5 February. Their Art and Design Scholars displayed their work in an exhibition, the Drama Scholars hosted the evening - introducing the performers, and gave an excellent history of The Sherborne through their script - and the Music and Performing Arts Scholars played, sang and danced.
From golden gowns shimmering under the lights to delicate metal flower sculptures by a talented Year 9 student, the exhibition was a feast for the senses from the art and design scholars. Easels proudly showcased horse portraits and hyper-realistic still-life paintings, whilst eye-catching art films flickered across the big screen.
As the evening unfolded, Leweston's drama scholars led the audience on a journey through time, weaving together The Sherborne’s rich history with Leweston’s own, bringing stories to life with humour, charm, and theatrical brilliance.
Between their spirited storytelling, the stage was filled with inspiring performances. A spellbinding Wicked number, a drum solo to David Bowie's Let’s Dance, and soaring Italian arias left the audience in awe.
The whole evening was a celebration of the immense talent and creativity of the school's Scholars, and served as a testament to the dedication, passion, and hard work of both students and exceptional staff.
