Beyond the Beat concert at Brookfield Community School

So inspiring to attend the Beyond the Beat concert at Brookfield Community School Brookfield School. A great welcome from Brookfield Headmaster Stuart Parkes, Sarisbury Junior School Headmaster Andy Stockton and Shaun Riches from Hampshire Music Service. Fantastic performance from 150 musicians including 90 from year 4 at Sarisbury who have been in training for just 10 weeks. Support from Brookfield Concert Band and Hampshire Music Service provided a great evening's entertainment. Well done to all who made this happen. A great advance for Hampshire County Council music education.

Park Gate Carol Service

Excellent carol concert in Middle Road, Park Gate last night. Thank you to all the traders who provided hot soup, hot dogs, mince pies and other food for the band and carollers. This was a welcome return of the event after a few years and I know it will grow in coming years.

Thanks to Sheila Searle for your inspiration Sheila Hurst Florist and to Ben Kimble for erecting lights.
