Talent is an Understatement!

Talent is an Understatement!

During a recent CHA talent show, the student body at Christiana showed that there is more than academic pursuit at this homeschooling cooperative. The 30 students, who eagerly participated in the talent show, exhibited amazing musical, theatrical and artistic ability to the parents and tutors that were gathered.

Students as young as five performed comfortably and confidently in front of their peers and the many adults that looked on. Piano pieces included “rag” music, classical music and an original piece by a CHA senior. Several vocalists warmed the crowd with a rendition of the song “For Good” from the musical, “Wicked.” The crowd waited anxiously for the skits that some of the high school guys put together. The crowd was rolling with laughter during these comedic interludes! A serious dramatic performance depicted Jesus coming as our deliverer. Another highlight of the evening was two ballet dancers, “on pointe” who dazzled the crowd with grace and elegance.

Finally, the seniors ended the evening with an original song, “We Are On Our Way.” This song, written by the senior class, was initiated by the senior Great Books teacher, who encouraged the seniors to write something that would reflect their senior year.

Many thanks to the senior class, who organized this “1st Annual CHA Talent Show.” Parents and students are hoping for an encore performance next year! Bravo CHA students!!!!!
