Around the World music workshop
Reception's topic this half term was Our World. The children have been learning about their local and regional area and about other cultures from countries around the World.
As part of the topic, the children had a visit from musicians who performed a Music Workshop for the children to participate in and experience music and songs from other countries and cultures. They really enjoyed dressing up, singing, dancing and playing a range of musical instruments.
The children have learned a lot of new songs and love singing and performing them!

THE BIG SING 2010
Yesterday, Year 5 and 6 went to The Sage, Gateshead to take part in this year's BIG SING. The theme for 2010 was 'Coming Home' and the children sang a huge array of songs based around this idea. As you will see from the photos, everyone had a fabulous day and we even had time to stop for a picnic lunch in Baltic Square. Luckily, we were also able to see The Millenium Bridge tilting whilst we were eating lunch. When we returned to school, all of the children were worn out from all of the walking, singing and dancing. It was a fantastic day for everyone.
