Nicola Mills 10.01.24

What an incredible interactive performance we had with Nicola Mills on 10th January!

Nicola is an opera singer whose talent has taken her around the world. She was even on the News during the COVID lockdowns for bringing ‘opera to the people’ on residential streets to lift spirits – a good deed which brought her to the attention of the Royal Family! Nicola’s story that she found her talent at the age of 14 when she was given singing lessons for free taught us that you never know when your life might change and the power that we have to change other people’s lives through acts of kindness.

She encouraged us to seek out things that ‘make our hearts happy’, just as opera singing does for her. We were thrilled by her performance of some opera by Puccini and had the most wonderful time joining in, in various ways, with Nicola’s rendition of a variety of more modern songs including ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’, ‘Anything Goes’ and ‘In the Jungle the Mighty Jungle’. She was so blown away by our shared performance of ‘A Spoonful of Sugar’ and ‘Supercalifragelisticexpiallydocious’ (songs from last year’s Year 5 and 6 Summer Performance) that she has invited us to join her on stage in a musical production that she is planning in March 2026 – so watch this space! We are very excited by the prospect! We certainly finished the afternoon with happy hearts. Thank you, Nicola!
