It was a magnificent opening ceremony on Friday enjoyed by everyone, including the Lord-Lieutenant of Norfolk, Richard Jewson Esq, the Lord Mayor of Norwich, Councillor Ralph Gayton, the Lady Mayoress, Mrs Brenda Gayton and the Sheriff of Norwich, Mr John Jennings.

The stars of the show were the 150 strong choir, musicians and dancers. A wonderful and fitting event to launch the most exciting school building in Norfolk.
