Music Lead: Miss Quinn
In our classes we have a weekly music lesson and we use Charanga to guide us through our lessons. Each term takes a new focus and area of music.
Through our curriculum, all children learn to 'listen and appraise' songs, learn new skills and knowledge, improvise and compose music and have the opportunity to perform. Each unit brings something new: Singing and a new genre of music, Learning to play an instrument, developing our understanding of wonderful composers. The children at St Stephen's get to experience great music and create their own masterpieces!
At St Stephen's, we also enjoying performing our music throughout the year, to a range of audiences.
During the last school year, we enjoyed:
- KS2 choir with Bedford High school in their School production
- Individual musicians performing at the Christmas Fayre
- KS2 choir singing at Astley Pensioners Club
- KS2 choir at Damn House for our community
- KS2 choir recording songs to be played on the local radio
- Brass Concerts by our Year 4
- ATSA Music Festival
- Year 6 School play
We wonder how many performances we can take part in this year...
