Broadway Presents Matilda the Musical Jr.

Broadway is proud to present Matilda the Musical Jr. on Sunday 14th June, with performances at 2pm and 7pm.

Ticket prices are £8 concessions and £12 adults.

Inspired by Roald Dahl’s much loved story, Matilda the Musical Jr. follows the journey of a brilliant young girl with an extraordinary imagination. Faced with difficult parents and the fearsome Miss Trunchbull, Matilda discovers the courage to stand up for what is right and inspire those around her.

Our Broadway students have been working incredibly hard over the past few months, dedicating countless hours to rehearsals, learning choreography, perfecting songs, and bringing these characters to life. We are so proud of everything they have achieved and cannot wait for audiences to see their talent, energy, and enthusiasm on stage. It promises to be a truly fantastic production filled with humour, heart, and unforgettable musical numbers.

Don’t miss out, buy your ticket here.

Ursa W. Qualifies for Prestigious Hickstead Competition

Rossall School is delighted to celebrate the recent show jumping success of Ursa W., who continues to achieve outstanding results while representing the School.

On 3 May 2026, Ursa competed in an NSEA competition, where she delivered an excellent performance to secure 1st place. Alongside this achievement, she also competed in the 1.10m class, a significant level of competition for a rider of her age.

As a result of her success, Ursa has qualified to compete at the prestigious Hickstead Showground in June. Recognised as one of the most famous and respected showgrounds in the country, Hickstead hosts some of the UK's leading equestrian competitions and attracts talented riders from across the nation.

Ursa will once again be representing Rossall School at the event, and qualifying for such a renowned competition is a tremendous accomplishment. We are incredibly proud of her dedication, talent and hard work, and we wish her every success as she prepares to compete at Hickstead.

Year 7 Pupils Selected for CBBC Filming Opportunity

Rossall School is delighted to congratulate Sophia in Year 6 and Delilah in Year 7, who were recently selected to appear in an episode of the CBBC programme Bro's In Control.

The girls secured their places through a self-tape audition process and spent the day filming on St Annes Beach. The experience provided a unique opportunity to see first-hand how a television programme is produced, from filming through to production.

Sophia and Delilah thoroughly enjoyed the day and gained valuable insight into the television industry while working alongside the production team and presenters.

The episode is expected to air in late autumn, and we look forward to watching their appearance on screen. Congratulations to both pupils on this exciting achievement.

Rossall Sport Development Plan: Investing in Our Future

We are delighted to launch the Rossall Sport Development Plan, beginning with the creation of a new all-weather 3G football pitch. This transformational project will enhance year-round training and competition, strengthening opportunity, participation, and performance for current and future Rossallians.

Alongside this, the plan includes further development of golf facilities, cricket provision, esports, a new cardio gym, and a sports café, creating inclusive spaces that support performance, wellbeing, and community.

The wider vision also includes a Garden of Reflection in Hall Gardens, honouring the legacy of the Kindertransport.

With the support of our community and alumni, we aim to build a lasting sporting legacy that reflects Rossall’s values and future ambition.
