Year 3 & 4 Pandas Recorder
Everyone has loved playing the recorder this half term. Children have learnt to play the notes B, A and G. They really enjoyed playing the ‘forbidden rhythm’ listening game!
On Thursday 11th July the children performed their music skills to the rest of the school.
Pupils performed on many instruments including the violin, guitar, keyboard, flue and voice.
The children demonstrated their amazing talents and clearly practise hard to be skillful and true musicians.
Leo was awarded the Music Award trophy in recognition of working hard and practising in order to continually improve and grow as a musician.
Well done to all of the children and keep practising! I cannot wait to see and hear your talents again next year.

Our school choir had a fantastic opportunity to sing at the historical Durham Cathedral. The choir have been working hard rehearsing ten chosen songs including 'Bring me sunshine', 'Blue Moon' and 'Here comes the sun'. They sang beautifully infront of a very large audience and they finished with a standing ovation. Miss Robson is very proud of them! Well done Choir!
