Springtime at Viewpoint brings with it a cherished tradition of Primary School performances in the Carlson Family Theater and on Blaney Patio. From March through May, students took the stage in delightful productions of Little Engine, The Wizard of Oz, Peter Rabbit and The Little Red Hen.

The festivities began in March with all three Kindergarten classes presenting Little Engine in the Carlson Family Theater. Adapted from Watty Piper’s The Little Engine That Could, the production has been a Viewpoint tradition for more than 20 years, teaching students the value of optimism and perseverance as the determined Little Blue Train saves the day.

Second Grade students brought The Wizard of Oz to life, celebrating friendship and resilience. The Carlson Family Theater transformed into the Land of Oz, complete with Munchkin Land, the Emerald City and Dorothy’s Kansas, as students delighted audiences with songs of hope and joy. 

In April, Blaney Patio became a magical English garden for First Grade’s Peter Rabbit. A Viewpoint tradition since 1967, the performance charmed an audience of families as students confidently brought Beatrix Potter’s beloved story to life.

The season concluded with Transitional Kindergarten (TK) students taking the stage on Blaney Patio for The Little Red Hen. Dressed as cats, pigs, ducks, cows, chicks and one Red Hen, Viewpoint’s youngest performers confidently shared the classic story, earning laughter and delighted reactions from the audience.

From the determined Little Blue Train to the magical Land of Oz, our youngest students showcased their talents while learning valuable lessons in perseverance, teamwork and creativity.
