Rockstar performance for Comic Relief from Morpeth schools

Year 8 Arts Award Pupils Choreographing the routine with Miss Kelly

Next month, pupils and staff from across Morpeth will come together for a lively and inspiring fundraiser, Morpeth Schools Rockstars for Comic Relief, which is set to take place at Chantry Middle School.

Organised by the Morpeth Schools Collaboration, the event will build on the success of last year’s Comic Relief activities and is expected to bring together around 1,500 pupils from 10 local schools in a celebration of creativity, collaboration and community spirit.

The theme for this year’s event will encourage children and colleagues to embrace their inner rockstars. Pupils and staff are invited to arrive in vibrant costumes reflecting their own personalities, from colourful outfits to rock-inspired accessories, helping to create a lively and energetic atmosphere.

A highlight of the morning will be a specially choreographed dance performance to a mash-up of two well-known Comic Relief songs: “Word Up” and “Walk This Way.” The routine has been choreographed by Year 8 pupils and our choreographer, Miss Kelly, who have shared a tuition video with all participating schools to support learning ahead of the event. Pupils from across the schools will perform the routine together, showcasing fantastic teamwork, enthusiasm and confidence.

In addition to the on-site celebrations, other schools will be able to join the event via a live weblink, enabling even more young people in the community to take part in the fundraising activity.

The event aims to raise valuable funds in support of Comic Relief, reinforcing the positive impact that schools can make when they work together with a shared purpose. It promises to be a wonderful opportunity for pupils to showcase their creativity, build confidence and contribute to a great cause. We look forward to welcoming all participating schools, pupils, staff, families and volunteers to what is set to be a memorable event.
