Expedition teams Brave the sea on Boxing Day

Little Shop of Horrors

On the 19th and 20th November, the hit Sci-Fi musical Little Shop of Horrors took to the stage here at Harton Academy. The story followed Seymour Krelborn, a meek floral assistant, who unearths a strange and interesting plant with a killer potential. Both shows were a great success and demonstrated the wonderful talent we have here at Harton. Each and every student involved should be very proud of...
