We were pleased to welcome an amazing String Quartet called 'Vita' from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama. The children engaged well with the performance and could recall key musical terminology such as rhythm and pitch. They were introduced to the Violin, Viola and Cello, where they could recall that a smaller string instrument plays a higher pitch and a larger string instrument plays a lower pitch. The children learnt about how the musical instruments were created and how horse hair is used for the bow of a violin.

We would like to say a huge thank you to Lindsay, Corinna and the lovely ladies in the String Quartet who have showcased their amazing talent and inspired the next generation of musicians. 

Mrs Chapman and four of our junior children had a fantastic time kayaking at Mallards Pike. Everyone learnt new skills and really challenged themselves, joining in with all the games and getting to know pupils from other local schools. They all ended up very wet but that was all part of the fun!

Mariner class experienced a full day at The Dean Academy today, where they enjoyed the Ukulele in music, chemical reactions in science and learnt about earthquake -proof buildings in a geography lesson.

Mrs Bonner and some of our junior children had a lovely day on Wednesday at the Walk & Ride event. They took part in a walk around the local hills near Norchard railway, had a treasure hunt, visited the museum and then they hopped on the train!
