I hope you all managed to see the Christmas songs from each year group on our school Facebook page and they brought you lots of ‘comfort and joy’ over the festive period.  
Reception, year 1 and year 2 ended 2025 with truly magical performances of the Nativity… how cute were the sheepy sheep? 
Year 2 also had the pleasure of a drumming workshop in the first week back after New Year. They must very, very good at keeping a rhythm and beat now.  
Year 3,4,5 have started to rehearse the songs for the Spring production of Rock Bottom by Craig Hawes: Stone Age musical comedy, set in the prehistoric town of Rock Bottom. The story follows Bobby Cobblestone, a young inventor whose previous attempts at creating useful tools have mostly failed. But all that is about to change.  
Year 6 have been studying feel – good music that is usually written in an upbeat major scale. They have used body percussion and glockenspiels to play along with some of the original tracks on you the Charanga music app that we use throughout the school.  
Finally, there is plenty more coming up over the rest of the year, in February the choir are heading to the 02 in London to perform at Young Voices, followed later in the year by both the infant and the Junior Music festivals. We also have two more RockSteady Gigs to look forward to and the year 6 leavers assembly in July, which always has a few good tunes involved!
