Bart Gee: Inspirational Visitor 19.09.24
Today we had the opportunity to meet an inspiring individual – Bart Gee – who showed us that ‘difficult’ means ‘possible!’ when he demonstrated his talent on the piano, having defied the messages he received growing up about what he would and would not be able to achieve due to his condition of Arthrogryposis. We listened to his stories and watched his talent in awe. We will certainly remember his message and keep reminding ourselves that: ‘We can do hard things – difficult means possible!’
Primary Robins 07.11.24
This week we welcomed, for the first time, an opera singer into school! From the Primary Robins project – courtesy of Pimlico Opera – Mrs Gayle will be spending 30 minutes each week with classes across KS1 and KS2. Each term the ‘Robins’ have a new, specially prepared songbook of around 10 songs, one of which is in another language. All songs are traditional rather than pop tunes, and pupils learn about and apply musical notation and terminology along the way. Everyone was blown away by their first experience this week can’t wait for their next session! Watch this space for photos and maybe even videos!
Singing Club Performance 8.11.24
Our wonderful Singing Club performed ‘Firework’ for us in our Celebration Collective Worship this week. They are supported by our wonderful Mrs O’Paul, who runs the club every Tuesday lunchtime, and sounded fantastic! The rest of the school thoroughly enjoyed listening to some live music by their peers.
Coming Soon!
Inspirational visitor – Opera singer Nicola Mills – January 2025!
