This afternoon, we went out into the playground to do some composing.

We have been practising hard (at school and at home) on our ukeleles and, so far, have learnt the chords of C and F.  Next week we will go on to the chord of G and then we will be able to play loads of songs!!  Have a listen to see how we're getting on.

Year 4 had their Cats drama lesson on Tuesday. They performed to two of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s songs, Macavity the Mystery Cat and Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat. They dressed up and made themselves masks to get into role.  During Macavity they paused to join in with the repeating lines. Using PE…

We are starting to learn the ukuleles in Year 5. Today we just practised holding the ukuleles and plucking the four strings. Hope fully greater things are to come! Watch this space…

On Tuesday we had a fantastic session with the Rock Kidz group. We danced along to songs about how good it is to be us. On Wednesday Nicola led our first Diddi dance session. We love moving to music.

Look at us all dressed up. We had a fantastic, noisy day.

What a day! The children have had an experience I'm not sure they will ever forget! Rock Kidz helped us think about how amazing we all are because we are all different. YASBA - You're Awesome So Be Awesome!
