The choir took part in the opening ceremony of Houghton Feast on Friday 4th October. For once, the weather was very kind. The children enjoyed the experience of singing with other schools and Miss Taylor. Everyone had a wonderful time!
The choir enjoyed learning some new songs with Miss Taylor today for the opening ceremony of Houghton Feast. This year the children will sing three songs with other schools from the area. Well done everyone you sounded great!
Whilst on our rock hunt, we were able to go into the village church and spend a few minutes thinking about our Queen who had just died. We thought about what her reign meant to us and thought about all the good she had achieved in her life. The children had the opportunity to enjoy the quiet in the church and also explore some of the beautiful pieces of sculpture and art.
The addition of brass instruments to our music tuition classes has proven very popular. The children are loving the opportunity to play some lovely instruments. Currently we have two groups having lessons on a Wednesday(a tenor horn group and a cornet group) however Sunderland Music Hub have be kind enough to buy us some further instruments so we can start another group very soon. During the last week of half term, I was able to pop into the lessons and was very surprised as to how much the children can play already. They are obviously practising hard-well done!
