CULLMAN, Ala. – Kindergarten students at Cullman City Primary School (CCPS) brought a joyful and fun musical celebration to the stage last week, as part of “A Barnyard Moosical,” designed to inspire creativity, confidence and community among the district’s youngest students.
“A Barnyard Moosical” was held on May 15, at Cullman City Primary School, set on a quirky farm telling the tale of a one-of-a-kind group of barnyard animals. From gourmet goats who refuse to eat garbage, to a chorus line of dancing cows, squeaky-clean pigs and funky chickens with some serious dance moves, the show delivered laughter and smiles from start to finish.
Many students proudly delivered speaking parts, gaining confidence and building communication skills in the process. Thanks to weekly art and music classes at CCPS, even the youngest learners are given the opportunity to explore their creativity, express themselves and develop a lifelong love for the arts.
“Our students have worked incredibly hard on this musical, and I was so very proud of them!,” Mary Lauren Samplaski, CCPS music teacher, said. “Performing instills a confidence in students that will serve them well all throughout their lives.”
The performance highlighted not only the children’s musical and theatrical talents, but also the lasting impact of arts education in early childhood that remains a key priority in Cullman City Schools.
