Samba-tastic!

Year 6 have been working really hard on their Samba Drumming for the last 5 weeks. We wanted to share this little sneak peek of Sapphire Class practising their Samba Reggae. We start with the main groove, where lots of different rhythm patterns played again and again (ostinato patterns) are played together to make polyrhythm. 

What is going well? What do we need to improve? Enjoy!

Our spectacular choir!

 Sing From Your Heart

"Shake off your doubt; what's within, let it OUT!" That's the advice in this wonderful song from Jon Allen, and that's what our spectacular singers in the Junior Choir are doing every time they come to rehearsal. We love this song, and are really excited to have shared it as our first song for Together With Music - an organisation that pairs schools with care homes and other groups in the local community. We can't wait to start getting to know some new friends and hope that our singing will spread some joy. We have been practising FACE singing: focus, action, confidence and energy. Do you think we have got some of these? 
If you'd like to come and join our wonderful choir, we are currently rehearsing after school on Thursdays. See you there!
