Benefits of Singing

Our school choirs know all about the benefits of singing – they feel it every week when they rehearse together. What a great way to start our day! All of our children get to experience these benefits each week in class as well. You can lock into these benefits too, pop on some music at home while you’re getting ready for school and have a little family sing along, or even a dance and sing! Let’s get those endorphins flowing and develop that sense of belonging in a fun way whenever we can.

A LITTLE BIT OF MUSIC FUN – some great ones this week!

Here are the clips that upper school students have watched recently in Music. We often only watch part of the clip in class due to time constraints and the learners are always asking to watch the rest. I tell them to ask their parents to show them from the newsletter. Why not watch them as a family and share the fun!
