Year 5 Bikeability joined by the Bikability Trust epic South North Adventure

Year 5 had a fantastic time on Monday and Wednesday evening performing at the Petersfield Music Festival. The event was both exciting and challenging, offering the children a wonderful opportunity to develop their musical skills and confidence. They worked hard to learn a varied and inspiring programme of songs, featuring music by Andrew Carter, Richard Stilgoe, Joseph Haydn, as well as pieces from the musical Hercules. Being part of the combined schools choir,  they sang alongside many other young performers, creating a powerful and memorable sound.

The children rose to the occasion brilliantly, showing great enthusiasm, focus, and teamwork throughout their performances. Their behaviour was exemplary, and they represented the school with pride.

In addition to performing, the pupils were able to experience a wide range of live music. They enjoyed listening to talented wind and jazz bands, as well as accomplished singers and violinists. 

Overall, it was a rewarding and enriching experience for everyone involved. The festival not only celebrated music but also helped the children grow in confidence and appreciation for live performance. Well done, Year 5!

Tuesday afternoon saw an exciting collaboration as Sheet and Camelsdale joined forces to create a new team: Shamelsdale, competing in the Bohunt dodgeball competition. This combined Year 3/4 squad brought energy, determination, and enthusiasm to the court, quickly proving that teamwork really does make the dream work.

In the lead-up to the event, the team dedicated time to developing their skills, focusing on coordination, communication, and match strategy. Their hard work paid off, as Shamelsdale delivered an impressive performance throughout the evening, ultimately securing a well-earned third place finish.

Beyond the results, the event was a fantastic opportunity for pupils to build friendships, demonstrate resilience, and enjoy the spirit of healthy competition. The positive attitude and sportsmanship shown by all players made the experience even more rewarding.

A special thank you goes to the parents who supported the team by providing transport and staying to cheer them on during the session. Your encouragement and commitment are greatly appreciated.

Well done to everyone involved in Shamelsdale!
