The CPA department, an iconic staple of Riddlesdown Collegiate, is constantly blooming with creativity. The opportunities available for the students provide a large range of choices to expand their knowledge and further their talents. These are, and have always been, unique and inclusive to all, especially the annual production, which the student body love to take part in. Whether taking part is singing and dancing on the stage, to painting the backdrops, there is a part for everyone. With the production being overly successful, Riddlesdown is excited to announce that Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is the production this year.

 ‘The CPA teachers are so encouraging and have really helped me boost my confidence and have made being part of the productions such an enjoyable experience, it’s so lovely to be in a place where creativity is so appreciated, and you meet so many amazing people in the process.’ Freya D, Year 13. Students of all ages love the chance to work on the production, it gives the chance for students to pursue their talents, while also meeting new people that share their passion. The production this year, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, will certainly be a very entertaining show, the students and teachers have both worked extremely hard to bring this altogether.
