Sioned - age11 - Cynghordy
I've had one brilliant time doing the opera. The best thing was sing and acting it was so much fun but it was pretty cold. With out the help of Hannah the director and the WNO singers we wouldnt ave been able to do enything like this in ar lives. All I want to say is thanx I had a great time and would love to do something like that again.

I've enjoyed dressing up for the Pale Kite scene because it's only me and two other people. If we don't make mistakes I know people will enjoy it!

Ben - age 9 - Cynghordy
The best part is that I like singing, acting and moving around alot and the songs I like best are Kite Feeding Habits and Attack On The Nests. The singers from the WNO have helped us and Hannah the director has helped us alot.
