The Grade R class of De La Salle Holy Cross College Junior school proved to audiences that much like Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz, they too always had power.

They showcase this power as they took to the stage and acted out the production which was every bit the whimsy it promised to be.

Audiences traveled down the yellow brick road with the young stars and were captivated at every twist and turn little Dorothy took them on.
