Overview of the term

Children continue to get a balanced curriculum in which Music is taught to all children from Nursery to Year 6. There continues to be opportunities for children to extend their musical interest outside of the classroom.

Choir worked hard for their performance at Wembley. They were part of a large choir to sing as part of Young Voices. The children prepared the songs and dances and we were super proud of them. Thanks goes to our families for supporting us again – thank you!

We have also been treated to a super Spring Soiree from Year 3 and Year 4. The Spring Soiree is an opportunity for us to see what the children are getting up to as part of our Music Curriculum. Highlights included, 3 part singing, a variety of rounds and of course their unique Ukulele skills. Families enjoyed joining in with one of the final songs.

At our Easter Service, Year 6 performed Dona Nobis. It is a pentatonic piece with counter melodies. They worked hard and it was a pleasure to see how hard they have worked. Great job Year 6.
