Schools create, inspire and perform at Bedales

Dunhurst, Bedales Junior School, invited schools in Hampshire and Surrey to join in on a special day to ‘create, inspire and perform’ through music, dance, drama and art. Children from Steep Primary School, Sheet Primary School, Harting C of E Primary School, Oakwood School in Chichester, Prince’s Mead School in Winchester and Camelsdale School in Haslemere worked all day with Dunhurst pupils to create and produce a special performance.

The day, designed to be led by the children’s ideas with guidance from specialist teachers, consisted of a variety of workshops to help put the performance together. Children in the music group worked with children in dance on the choreography and children in drama worked with the art group to create masks and costumes for all the characters.

The theme of the day was ‘Earth Matters’, and the children were asked to imagine angels visiting the earth for the first time and how they would help them understand what earth was like by putting on a special performance.
Dunhurst’s Director of Teaching and Learning, Kathy Misson, who organised the day, said: “It was wonderful to see children from different schools who had never met before, working together so enthusiastically and putting on such a fantastic performance. Everyone enjoyed the day and the biggest achievement was observing team work at such a young age in action.”
