Fiona Henderson, (FHSD principal and artistic director) said: “I was delighted with the Show weekend and incredibly proud of all our pupils who performed so well.

“They’d worked so very hard in the preceding months preparing for what is our main showcase event of the year. We continually strive to raise the bar each and every year in everything we do and this year’s show was the best we’ve ever produced.”
