Lest we forget!
LKS2 performed their songs remembering those who lost their lives during past Wars remarkably well! It was such a special occasion as Years 3 and 4 performed at a remembrance service along with Years 1 to 6. The children spoke impressively well and sang beautifully, as the audience watched on respectfully. As part of the service, each Crew laid a poppy wreath at the front of the hall, after creating these wonderful tributes as part of Crew sessions and with each looking unique. Then, as the clocks hit 11, there was an impeccable minutes silence held by all.
This was held alongside our Expedition, as LKS2 researches ‘how war changes lives’. Some children even sang along to the songs that were performed, which was lovely to see.
Check out the video below of the beautiful singing taking place!
Thank you to Miss McGlone for helping prepare the children for the Service, as well as Mrs Wight and Miss Lee for helping the children learn their speaking roles!
We shall remember, on this Remembrance Weekend!
Grateful for guitar lessons 🎼
This week Crew Mcloughlin had their second guitar lesson and loved every minute! Our highlight was clapping along to our music instructor playing and singing ‘Sweet Caroline’. Maybe it will be one of us playing a tune on the guitar soon😬
Young Voices 2023 – KS2 After School Club
Preparations for Young Voices will begin on Tuesday 1st November (3:00-4:00) for children in KS2. Please ensure that your child is signed up via ParentPay to secure their place. The club will be FREE to attend and further information about our Young Voices performance will be sent out in due course. This event is always such a great success and it would be fantastic if as many children as possible are able to attend our rehearsals weekly ready for our performance at Sheffield Arena in January 2023!

Magical Music in KS1
The children LOVED their music session today! We rocked out to the beat of some iconic tunes, looking the composure, beat and tone. We can’t wait for next week!
Music – Crew Marsh 15.9.22
Today in music we have continued to look at making beats with our percussion instruments. We started off by working with a partner to create patterns and then repeat them back to one another. We then started to learn our new song ’I Wanna Be In A Band’.
Music – Y3/4
This week we have started looking at Jazz music and how it was important during World War II. We identified the instruments used and began to learn the song ’We’ll Meet Again’, originally performed by Dame Vera Lynn. Keep an eye out for a sneak peek of our further practise of the song in the coming week!
Music – Y1/2
In Year 1/2 we started to look at becoming musicians by being introduced to different percussion instruments. We started off by clapping and repeating patterns before then trying to repeat patterns using our percussion instruments. We had so much fun and loved hearing all the different sounds made by the instruments!
Music – Year 5/6
We started our musical learning journey this week by listening to and appraising a piece of music by composer Gustav Holst, that was created to represent the character of the planet Mars. We discussed the instruments used, the tempo and dynamics of the piece before thinking about how Holst used all these elements to portray the characteristics of war usually associated with Mars.
