Celebrating Music Day!

Alex and Ben led a workshop for each class during Music Day. Topics linked with our curriculum and children and staff all had great fun participating in warm up games followed by different groups creating and performing music.

Throughout the day, all our activities were based around music - from learning new songs, to listening to music and creating descriptions or drawings to match the music moods, to making our own fantastice instruments to composing soundscapes with our own instruments! Wow!

Here are just a few photos celebrating our musical day.

Year 3 'Rock stars of the future'

Year 3 have started their In2music guitar lessons every Monday.

Year 6 learn the Haka!

To celebrate the fact that the rugby world cup is underway in New Zealand, Year 6 are creating a rugby dance! This had involved learning a simple version of the Haka to intimidate their opposition and putting together a series of movements to represent scoring a try!

Rock n Roll

Year 5 have really got going with our rock n roll topic and we are looking forward to being able to show all the new skills we have learnt at our rock n roll showcase on 19th October! Look out for photos of our music day, which is taking place on Thursday 29th September!

Our boat show visit

Look at the fun Year 2 had at the boat show.

Year 2 at the boat show

Year 2 had great fun at the boat show. They enjoyed looking on board the sunseekers and seeing the RNLI lifeboat and the marine life on the Callista. It was a wonderful day.

Year 1 enjoying lots of learning!

Year 1 have been very busy over the last couple of weeks. We have been learning about numbers in Numeracy, describing the characters in Toy Story using adjectives and ordering and re-telling the story in our own words! In History we have been exploring new toys and describing what they are like. In Science we have begun our forces topic and explored different types of movement. The pictures show us pushing and pulling ourselves along the benches. Well done Year 1 for settling quickly into the Year 1 curriculum!
