Secondary students performed Hamlet at the School Shakespeare Festival under the guidance of Drama teacher Rebecca Dorrington. Lower and Upper Primary children got busy with Christmas productions.

Nahshon entered an oil portrait of himself which he’d done as a school art project. “It’s the painting that stole the show,” enthused the Bermuda Sun. “A poignant self-portrait carrying the hallmarks of a gifted professional.” Nahshon’s interest in art began at age two; since then he’s attended art camps at Boston University, had a solo show at the Masterworks Museum, and sold numerous pieces of his work.
