The Lion's Roar in pictures - Spring 2012

The children must leave the city

Lucy find an old wardrobe and ends up in a snowy world
where a white stag leaps through the woods
she meets Tumnus the faun
Lucy goes back and tells her brothers and sister but they don't believe her.
Edmund follows her back through the wardrobe and runs into the Jadis, the White Witch.

temptation - Turkish delight

later all the children find their way through the wardrobe into Narnia.
They discover Tumnus has been captured by the White Witch
and a blue bird guides them to the Beavers
the Beavers tell the children about Aslan
Edmund sneaks off to join the White Witch so the Beavers and rest of the children hurry off to meet Aslan.
on the way they run into Father Christmas!
leopards enjoy the Christmas celebration
winter is weakening
the trees are flowering







and Spring is escaping from the White Witch


Lucy, Susan & Peter make it to Aslan's camp
even the trees are dancing

then Maugrim attacks and Peter defeats the wolf
Edmund escapes from the White Witch
but she comes and demands her right to the traitor
Aslan takes Edmund's place
the girls dance in sorrow for Aslan gave his life to save Edmund's

                             here come the cute little mice








they nibble the ropes off of Aslan
He's alive!


Aslan frees those frozen by the White Witch

 the battle

Aslan pounces and the Witch is no more
the celebration and coronation
