2020 PNBHS School Concert by PNBHS

'Out of Lockdown' - 2020 PNBHS Concert

The annual school concert featured a wide range of high-quality performances, a reflection of the huge number of hours spent in individual and group practice and rehearsal.

After a large audience was treated to a thoroughly enjoyable evening for the first night of the concert, we were very disappointed to have to cancel the second night.  We remain hopeful that this will be able to be rescheduled in the near future.  We hope you enjoy the images from the concert as well as the short video clips from some of the performances.


Year 9's attend Smashed Project 

Smashed uses powerful live theatre and interactive workshops to engage students on the dangers of underage drinking. Young audiences follow the lives of three young people and witness how they become involved with alcohol and how it affects their lives. Interactive workshops enable students to explore the facts about underage drinking and develop strategies for resisting peer influence.

'Smashed' Programme at PNBHS

Last week the Life Education Trust brought their 'Smashed' programme back to PNBHS for our Year 9 students.

It is a live performance about under-age drinking, which is then followed by an interactive workshop where students are invited to discuss the issues and consequences brought up during the play.


Having the performance is an interesting opportunity to address the issue of underage drinking as well as encourage a responsible approach to alcohol in the future. Research has found that the younger people are when they begin to drink alcohol, the more likely they are to develop poor drinking behaviours later in life. Therefore having the Life Education Trust come and provide an exciting visual display could help bring about change.


The performance group also visited PNGHS and are continuing south to other High Schools this week.
