Choir Workshop- Let’s Go Sing
This afternoon the choir have taken part in a Let’s Go Sing workshop with one of their fantastic singing instructors! We practiced and perfected our songs, in preparation for our concert at King George’s Hall on Monday 13th March! It has been lovely to see the progress that the children have made with their singing and performing this half term and we cannot wait to dazzle the audience at the concert in March!
Rhyme and Story time
Our rhyme and story time has finished for this half term. Please join us again on 1st March 2023 between 9-9.30am. Reception class families are more than welcome to attend and we also welcome preschool children. Refreshments will be served after.
Year 4- Writing our own lyrics in music
In music today, we wrote our own lyrics to a scene from a short film.
Year 1- Song writing
In music this afternoon we’ve been creating our own word boards to help us create some lyrics for our own song. Your creativity was impressive!
Year 5 - Music Songwriting
During music for the next couple of weeks we will be writing our own songs using the glockenspiel to create a melody. We have been learning what different parts of a song are called and which order they would normally go in to create a typical pop song. We have also been learning about the difference between rapping and singing.
Year 2 - Junior Jam
This week in junior jam, year 2 have been learning about a variety of music genres, creating lyrics and exploring different music styles.
Reception: Rhyme time
We had a brilliant rhyme and story time this morning in Reception. Thank you to our Mummies and Grandma’s who came today. Rhyme time is on every Wednesday morning at 9am. Preschool children and parents from Reception are welcome to join us.
Year 5- Junior Jam- Songwriting
This week in music, Year 5 have been improving their song-writing ability. Over the course of the term, the children will be introduced to different techniques to help write lyrics and improve vocal melodies. They also worked really hard in French and Computing.
Year 3- Junior Jam
Today year 3 have been recapping colours in French and also learnt the days of the week, sharing which day of the week was their favourite day. During computing the class worked in pairs and used iPads to write out a piece of information, they had to use the correct font, size and grammar. In music today, lots of different pieces of music were played, by different artists, they then voted if they thought that artist had written the song or not.
Lantern Parade in Whitehall Park
We had a lovely sing a long in The Rose Garden this afternoon! Due to the ice and weather, we were unable to walk around the park, however we still managed to spread some Christmas cheer! Thank you to those who could make it and wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Carols by Candlelight
A huge thank you to everyone who came along to the Carols by Candlelight Service. Our choir sang brilliantly and well done to Jenson for his lovely reading. It was wonderful to hear one of previous choir members, Isaac, singing a beautiful solo too. It really does feel like Christmas now.
Year 6 music
Year 6 have worked hard to improve their keyboard skills this week in their music lesson.
