This week, Year 3 have been learning to sing “Castle on the hill” by Ed Sheehan, our musician of the month for September. Keep practising Year 3 because it is sounding great already!

This week, year 2 and year 4 amazed us all with their song entries for the annual infant and junior singing festivals, hosted by Walsall Music Education Hub.

Year 2 sung ‘A Million Dreams‘ from The Greatest Showman and an original song, written for the festival called ‘Lockdown Life‘.

Year 4 sung ‘This Is Me‘ from The Greatest Showman and another original song, written for the festival called ‘The Brightest Day‘.

Both classes were able to sign parts of their songs from The Greatest Showman using Makaton.

The Infant Singing Festival, featuring year 2, will be aired on Walsall Music Hub’s YouTube channel on Thursday 1st July. Further information about how to access this will be given out soon.

The Junior Singing Festival, featuring year 4, will also be aired on Walsall Music Hub’s YouTube channel on Thursday 24th June. Further information about how to access this will be given out soon.

Below are some photographs and video clips of both classes performing.

At the start of the summer term, year 3 have been beginning to learn to play the recorder.

Here are some pictures of the children during their music lessons this half term since returning to school.
