On the 2nd and 3rd of July 2018 under the direction of Head of Drama, Paddy Scott, the class presented the premiere performance of  her full length stage play, A Colonial Devotion.

Based on ‘Letters to My Grandchildren’ by Jane Deans, this play brings to life the story of one of New Zealand’s most significant pioneering women.

Playwright, Susan Battye was thrilled to see the play staged in Christchurch, her original home town.

A direct descendent of Jane Deans, Diana Deans, commented, “We were completely absorbed, and very moved, watching A Colonial Devotion.”
