Offham May Day Celebrations and Maypole Dancing
Tue 07 May 2024We were delighted to be part of the traditional Offham May Day celebrations over the bank holiday weekend.
It was a fantastic day where our Year 5 children took centre stage with their fabulous Maypole dancing which they had carefully practised in preparation for the event. They looked amazing in their Mayday costumes and also took part in the procession behind the May Queen into the village.
It was a wonderful community event with lots of stalls, a bake off, dog show and all the children in the school participated in the art competition. We were really lucky that the weather was great and everyone had a fantastic day where the strong community spirit of Offham was clear to see.
Thank you to all the children that took part and all the parents/carers and families that came along to support the event. Thank you also to Mrs Rose and Y5 staff for ensuring the children were well prepared.

Assembly with Ms Matthews - Acting in the West End
Fri 03 May 2024Mrs Matthews came into Offham on Tuesday to tell us all about her career in acting and on the stage.
She told us how Cosette from Les Misérables sparked her passion for acting. She then went to a drama specialist secondary school where she did 60% academic and 40% acting and drama. They were long days until 6.30pm.We saw all the shows and plays that she has been part of - The Witches, Miss Saigon and Evita.
We had some excellent questions from KS2 like "What does it feel like when you're on the stage?" and "What show are you acting in now?"
