Rosemead Festival
The Rosemead Festival 2025
We’re thrilled to be part of this year’s St Dunstan’s Festival, running from 23rd to 27th June—a dynamic, multi-day celebration of creativity, learning, and community spirit. Originally launched in the 1990s as the Catford Arts Festival, this event has blossomed into an ambitious celebration of talent, collaboration and enriching experiences. Now, as members of the St Dunstan’s Education Group, Rosemead is contributing in a big way.
Each year group will take part in a specially curated workshop during the festival week, and every year team will also host a parent-invited event during the school day, offering an opportunity to share our pupils’ experiences and achievements in a celebratory setting.
But the excitement doesn’t end there! As you were told at the start of the term, our club programme ends a week earlier than usual so that on festival week, Rosemead staff can run a vibrant programme of activities designed for children to enjoy alongside a parent, carer, or family member. This unique format creates a space for families to share in the joy of learning, creativity, and physical activity. Our wonderful external providers— Zumba, LAMDA, Running Club —will also be opening their doors to parents for some of their clubs (check the programme), adding even more energy and fun to the week.
We are planning one ticketed event run by our PE department—details to follow soon!
Take a look at the programme to see what’s on offer and which events are open to your child’s year group.
These activities are bookable through Magic Booking, and in the first instance, we will prioritise bookings that include an adult attending with their child. We’ve chosen this format intentionally—to offer something special: shared experiences that strengthen schoolfamily connections.
The Rosemead Festival Programme is a bold, joyful expression of everything we value: community, creativity, and shared moments that inspire brilliant futures.
Please help us make it a great success!
