Next, Jays Class took to the stage with their beautiful Summer Poem, sharing thoughtful words that perfectly captured the sights and sounds of the season. They then delighted everyone with their lively performance of the traditional song Over the Deep Blue Sea, sung with enthusiasm and confidence.

The Southfield Choir returned with a powerful rendition of Feeling Good by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse. Their impressive vocals and stage presence filled the space with energy and pride, earning warm applause from the audience.

Following this, Blackbirds Class showcased their talents through poetry and performance. They performed The Sound Collector by Roger McGough, bringing the well-loved poem to life with creativity and expression. They then entertained everyone with Splish Splash Splosh! by James Carter, a vibrant and engaging performance that highlighted their excellent teamwork and performance skills.

To conclude the celebration, all pupils came together for the Behaviour Charter Song by Rebecca Starling & The Southfield Choir and the parents even got to join in. This uplifting finale perfectly reflected the values of our school community, an example of the music development plan and brought performers and audience members together in a joyful ending to a very special occasion.

We are incredibly proud of every child who took part. Their confidence, commitment and enthusiasm shone throughout the performance, and they should be immensely proud of what they achieved. Events like these remind us of the power of music, poetry and shared experiences in bringing our school community together.

A huge thank you to our staff, families and supporters who helped make the event such a success. Most importantly, congratulations to all of our performers for creating a wonderful Summer Solstice celebration that will be remembered for a long time to come.
