Music

The national curriculum for music aims to ensure that all pupils:

•  perform, listen to, review and evaluate music across a range of historical periods, genres, styles and traditions, including the works of the great composers and musicians
•  learn to sing and to use their voices, to create and compose music on their own and with others, have the opportunity to learn a musical instrument, use technology appropriately and have the opportunity to progress to the next level of musical excellence
•  understand and explore how music is created, produced and communicated, including through the inter-related dimensions: pitch, duration, dynamics, tempo, timbre, texture, structure and appropriate musical notations

Music Tuition

Currently, we offer children the opportunity to have extra-curricular lessons in flute, clarinet, keyboard  and singing.

Mrs Karen Cook is our instrumental teacher and Mrs Effie Hodgkinson is our singing coach.

If your child is interested in taking up music lessons, please contact the school office.

Discounts are available if you are in receipt of certain benefits or your child has free school meals.

Young Voices

Young voices is a nationwide concert programme involving thousands of young people.  In January 2015, we took part for the first time, singing with over 4000 other children at Sheffield arena.  We will be repeating this experience in January 2016 and then will look at making this a regular feature of school life at least every other year.
