Such charisma!
A truly international appeal. Pupils whose first language is not English were able to participate, as were less able pupils. Even my older pupils, at first a little aloof, were drawn in and responding with as much enthusiasm as the younger pupils. Some shy children experienced a moment or 2 of glory when invited to take on a role - positively glowing with the appreciation of Morgan and the applause of the audience.
