As promised, here’s a link to share with all the parents should they want to get signed books for their child on the day. They can order these from the comfort of their own home and we will have them ready and give them to your staff on the day of the show.


ORDER SIGNED BOOKS NOW!

Deano will personalise and sign the ordered books for the children on the day, allowing the learning and laughter to continue well past the excitement of the show.
*Please note the book orders need to be in BEFORE the show.


Additionally, to help make the show a smashing success, please play the following YouTube videos for the children to help them become familiar with the songs and books:
