Our school took part in the first ever LIGHTHOUSE GOT TALENT which was held at Walsall Arena.  Children from across all 9 federation schools took part in this amazing event.

Barcroft Primary had two acts who entered the competition – one group and one solo artist.

A huge well done and congratulations to our two acts:

• Imani and Seerat (Year 3) who performed a brilliant dance to Jutti from the movie ‘Maklawa’ and
• Hannah (Year 4) who performed a solo (singing and dancing) to Roar by Katy Perry. 

Both acts were phenomenal and they were super brave to stand on the huge stage in front of 400 people and perform so confidently!  

It was a wonderful evening showcasing the fantastic talents of not only Barcroft pupils but children across the Lighthouse Federation.
