Head’s musical masterpiece


A MUSICAL composed by a talented Whalley headteacher has finally


been published. Mr Brian Beresford, head­


teacher of Whalley Primary School, hit the high note when he wrote an end-of- term play called “ Samson Power” . The musical was per­


formed by the pupils last year and rapturously received by packed and enthusiastic audiences on three occasions. People power persuaded


Mr Beresford to have the play published and it is now available to thousands of pri­ mary schools across the country to perform with guaranteed success. In addition to Samson


Power, the gifted teacher has produced a book called “ Bethlehem Town” , which features a collection of songs

Strummer Ian’s musical tips


BUDDING musicians at Whalley Pri­ mary School hit the high note - thanks to talented guitarist Ian Barker. The professional musician spent 45 minutes at the school giving youngsters


tips on how to play the guitar. Pupils enjoyed listening to classical


pieces and were guided towards under­


standing how the instrument performs at its best. Headteacher, Mr Brian Beresford, said: “We have a lot of young guitarists at the school and they all enjoyed the session.” Our picture shows guitarist Ian with


pupil Kelly Mashiter showcasing their talents. (B211005/6)

for primary schools. The ten songs, with piano accompa­ niment, can be used as a basis for a school celebration of Christmas, whether in plays, concerts, carol services or assemblies. The catchy tunes have all


been performed and audi­ ences have demanded that they be published. Alterna­ tively, each song can be seen as a separate item, and the collection can be dipped into, according to requirements. The music has been pro­


vided by Mr Beresford, but the words have been supplied by former St James’ teachers Mrs Margaret Bleazard and Mrs Ruth Seed, who have always been looking for new ways of presenting the Christmas story. Mr Beresford revealed that


schools as far as Aberdeen in the north and Bournemouth in the south have been enjoy­ ing the songs.


He added: “ It is early days


yet, but so far 15 copies of Bethlehem Town have been sold. I have had good reviews from people and anticipate a lo t o f schools across the country will want to perform Samson Power for Christ­ mas.” • Samson Power can be


performed by groups of chil­ dren aged between seven and 11 and is adaptable for all school settings. The story of Samson is told with zest, humour, sensitivity and vari­ ety, with characters includ­ ing Delilah, Samson’s friends and family, the lion, hair­ dressers, an angel and a hilar­ iously inept, but menacing Philistine army. If anyone requires further


information or an order form for the musical play that your school can perform with guaranteed success, they are asked to visit the website www.onemoretime.biz
