The students of Center School performed their holiday production of Melton The Warm-Hearted Snowman to a full house of adoring family members and friends on Thursday December 19th. Directed by Ms. Willow Dowling the entire student body lent their talents and enthusiasm to this story of a snowman ‘born’ with a warm heart. Given that warmth and snowmen do not a merry combination make, the story tells how Melton gave his heart to the school’s one ‘mean boy’ Bartholomew (played by Torsten Brickley), changing him into a boy full of love and good cheer.
Melton was played by Grady Vandal with support from Papa Snowman, Sam Balsis; Mama Snowman, Grace Picewick. A group of Elves sang and danced to Tough Love in a rap style rendition complete with the latest dance moves. The Elves were played by: Brenna Carrier, Sean Davis, Chloe Gomes, Chloe Hurley, Thomas Janicki, Jillian LeBlanc, David Magee Jr., Kyle McCullough, and Makenna Servais.
Principal, Rosemany Bowman thanked the student and the audience for what she said was the best gift she could receive, seeing all the precious children and their supporting family coming together to share this event.
