HAS Felpham Community College Got Talent – YES it has!
Felpham Community College hosted their hotly anticipated annual Charity Talent Show on Tuesday 10th March.
Auditions for the show took place at the beginning of this term, and then the acts who made it through to the live shows had 6 weeks to practice.
Students from years 7 right the way through to year 13 were chosen for the event, covering a wide range of talents – singers, dancers, musicians, gymnasts and even comedy. The FCC fabulous Sixth Form Student Leadership Team were comperes for the evening, and sixth form students ran the stage, sound, photography and refreshment / ticket / programme sales. They also mentored students in the run up to the event to help them prepare.
There were over 400 tickets sold over the afternoon and evening show, with enthusiastic audiences supporting all the acts and also voting for their audience choice award.
Mr Summers, Assistant Headteacher, commented:
“I was lucky to sit on the judging panel for the event and it was great to see all the performers giving it their all. You could really see how they have improved since the auditions back at the beginning of term. Both shows had brilliant atmospheres and it was great to see everyone enjoying themselves – performers as well as the audiences! The event raised over £1500 for charity which is a fantastic achievement. All the acts were amazing and deserve a huge well done, and also a well done to the students who supported the event by helping to run it – and to everyone for supporting us and buying tickets – thank you!
