Students from Kingsmead School in Wiveliscombe took to the open stage to entertain audiences in a variety style show.

An array of talents were displayed from students including Enya Kneeshaw in year 10, rapping the Queen's Speech, singing, dancing, gymnastics and a magic trick presented by Elliot Risely in year nine.

A short play titled Sparkle Shark was acted out by students who are part of a drama club, organised by Chloe King in year 10.

Pupils in the Blue Weasel Choir sang Trail of the Lonesome Pine and Good Morning Baltimore from Hairspray.

Comperes on the evenings were Fiona Mansell, year nine, and Paul Bowler, year 11.

Elizabeth Vassallo, head of drama, said: "I am so proud of the amount of talent our students have, and Kingsmead's open stage gives them the opportunity to show off what they can do with skills gained in and outside of school.

"I was very impressed with the variety of acts and the commitment and enthusiasm the students showed for the event."

Naomi Honour, head of music, said: "I very much look forward to working with these creative students for the next school production in the summer term."
