Talent Quest - SBC Day

This year our Talent Quest hopes to be bigger and better than last year. We would love to hear from singers and bands, but would also like to add some variety to the show this year. Can you tell some (appropriate) jokes? Can you perform some (non lame) magic tricks? Can you dance? If this sounds like you and you would love to do this in front of the whole school, then please see Mr Hoyes or Mr Palamo over the next couple of weeks as we finalise the line-up. We look forward to hearing from you.
