Clergy Worship on a Tuesday morning consists of key stages joining together to sing and worship together.Take a look at Year 5 enjoying their singing assembly this morning. They sang songs about our current value, ‘forgiveness’. 

This half term 6D were practicing Samba in the hall. What a fantastic lesson and opportunity to learn about different rhythms in Samba!

In Autumn 2, 4A had a visit from Sam the sound man. They learnt so many amazing things about sound from how echoes work to ways we could make their own instruments. They all really enjoyed the session and it really helped deepen their Science learning for this half term. A couple of cool facts they learnt were: hard materials produce more echoes, there is no sound in space and the bigger the object the lower the sound it will make.

They also finished our samba topic in Music by collating all the rhythms they learnt this half term to create a final piece of work. Mr Ash was really impressed with the children’s perseverance in the subject as they are now a lot more confident at playing as part of a group or as individuals.

What a fun, festive time! Year 3 and 4 invited their families to sing carols around the tree with them. Hot drinks, steel pan performances and Christmas carols were throughly enjoyed by all!
