Since September students from St Wilfrid's Catholic High School have been rehearsing
extensively for the annual musical production. This year they will be taking the audience back to the 1970s with an exciting collaboration of singing, dancing and acting based around the fictional nighclub the "Disco Inferno". The show is full of songs that the audience can singalong to, with favourites such as "Celebration", "YMCA" and "Play that Funky Music". "Disco Inferno" will be shown in Brunseels Hall at St Wilfrids friom Tuesday 5th February to Friday 8th February at 7pm. Doors open at 6.45pm. Tickets are £6 (adults) and £4 (concessions).

On the day that Schools Secretary Ed Balls announced cookery lessons are to be compulsory in England's secondary schools for children aged 11 to 14, St Wilfrids pupils attended an exciting cookery demo by Chefs from Brasserie 99. As part of Wakefield Festival of Food and Drink 2008 pupils will again be entering Junior Amateur Chef of the Year. Can we be as successful as last year and win? Our budding Jamie Olivers and Nigella Lawsons attended the demonstration by chefs Simon and Paul who demonstrated good kitchen practice and made a fantastic pasty in just a few minutes. Suma Wholefoods were there to educate pupils about the healthy, sweet and delicous taste of dried fruits such as apricots and mango, as well as the nutrious use of lentils and beans. The prizes are a fantastic iPod, plus a weeks work experience atBrasserie 99 alongside a top chef as well as a trip to Alton Towers and a meal for 4. Good Luck to everyone who enters!
