OUR MUSIC DEPARTMENT

Prep:
The Prep Music Department has enjoyed a busy and
productive year, sharing a number of occasions with Grammar
pupils. These have included assemblies, Chinese New Year
celebrations, orchestral contributions, songs for Anti-Slavery
week and the Winter Concerts. Working together on Musical
projects enables a delightful sharing of ideas, abilities and
approaches which benefit older and younger children
enormously.

The production of Mulan was the highlight of last term,
involving over 120 children, all of whom worked incredibly
hard, rising to the challenge of a complex musical score.
Well done to all involved! Overall the children have grown
in their musical appreciation through ensemble and solo
instrumental playing, superb singing projects in choir and
class, composition, and movement. Opportunities to use
their wonderful creativity has been enjoyed. I am proud of
their efforts and wish the children a continuing love and
participation in music in the future.
