Part of the school’s charity week, the theme for the virtual event was a Night at the Movies and included choreographed fashion walks from Sister Act, The Greatest Showman, Love Actually and The Lion King.

The show was streamed live into pupil’s homes and families were encouraged to donate to the event’s chosen charity, The Elizabeth Foundation which supports children with hearing loss.

The fashion show was organised by head girl Charlotte Kellagher, 17, who said: ‘We’ve had so much fun putting the fashion show together. It has been challenging given the circumstances, but we’re so glad we have been able to create something that raises both our spirits and donations for the Elizabeth Foundation.

‘The Foundation provides such an important and unique service to help children with hearing loss learn to communicate. This, along with the friendly and open nature of the people working there, made us certain that this charity would be perfect for the Head Girl Team and Sixth Form to support this year.’

Year 12 pupil Daisy Cole added: ‘It was such a fun way to bond with everyone in the Sixth Form and I would highly recommend it to the younger years to get involved themselves when they’re in Sixth Form.’

Head of Sixth Form Rob Smith described the show as a ‘wonderful showcase of pupil’s amazing creativity and brilliant humour’.
