Music in Year 6 🎡

We have had so much fun with our music in Year 6! The children have had a fantastic time learning about lots of different musical features in our topic of ‘Growth’…3-pulse beats, musical texture, ostinato and flash mob to name but a few! Here are some pictures of the fabulous work that they have been doing! 😊

Art Club! πŸ–ŒπŸ–ŒπŸ–ŒπŸ–ŒπŸ–Œ

Thank you to the children who attended art club tonight! We had a lovely time sketching and using water colour to create springtime flower pictures.

Author Visit to School!

Today, we were visited by local author Sarah Griffiths, who shared her latest books ‘Finding Stones for Grandma’ and ‘When the Fireflies Came’. The children had a wonderful time listening to her stories, joining in with interactive sessions and learning more about what it is like to be an author. It was fantastic to see how inspired the children were after her visit, with lots of children sharing ideas of the stories that they were now going to write themselves!

 

 

Brazil and The Amazon Rainforest Projects

Romero Britto Artwork 🎨

The children in Year 6 have been working really hard on their art topic this half term. They have been focussing on the work of Brazilian artist Romero Britto, and have built up a portfolio of art based upon his work. Here are some examples of the wonderful finished pieces that the children have created! 😊

Yoga 🧘
