SCHOOL children took to the stage to prove they have really got talent.
Pupils at Emmanuel CE Middle School in Verwood wowed audiences when they showed off an array of many different performance skills in their own show.
Inspired by the popular ITV programme Britain's Got Talent, the event saw youngsters from all year groups demonstrate dance and comedic skills, while singers took on numbers from hit shows like Annie.
Head teacher, Rob Christopher, said: "This show and the whole process behind it has encouraged our students to demonstrate our core values of excellence, endeavour and enjoyment.
"It really gave our young people a chance to shine and be proud of their talents outside of the classroom."
More than 80 acts competed to win one of eight places in the live show.
A panel of judges included Mayor of Verwood Sandra Grove.
The joint winners were Year 8’s Zoe Richardson with her solo performance of Thursday by Jess Glynne and The Grylls Girls, made up of eight pupils across all year groups, who performed a routine from Annie the musical.
