perhaps not simple, but this should work:

In Site.SideBar instead of

%sidehead% [[News/News|News]]
%sidehead% (:pagelist trail=News/News fmt=#titlespaced count=5 order=-ctime:)

try this:

%sidehead% (:pagelist trail=News/News fmt=#newshead count=1 order=-ctime:)
%sidehead% (:pagelist trail=News/News fmt=#titlespaced count=5 order=-ctime:)
(:if false:)
[[#newshead]]
* [[{=$FullName}|News]]
[[#newsheadend]]
(:ifend:)

The first pagelist outputs only one item (count=1), in fact the first
of the pagelist you get from the second page list.
The ouput is formatted with the custom format 'newshead',
which gives a link as a list item, with label 'News'.
