Music
At Christchurch Infant School, we aim to engage and inspire our children to develop a love of music. This will help them to develop their talent as musicians and so increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement.
As children progress, they will develop a critical engagement with music, using first hand, practical experiences wherever possible. Opportunities for immersion in music skills whether listening, singing, speaking chants or rhymes, playing, performing, improvising and composing will be sought through a well-planned approach of building on the knowledge and understanding of the interrelated dimensions of music.
We also love to share our music making in the community where we can, with exciting opportunities such as our Christmas nativities to parents, Year 2 Christmas carol concert celebration with the local Baptist Church, local care home and elderly lunch club at Christmas, joint projects with the Junior school, class assemblies, Arts Week and even sometimes taking part in the biennial Christchurch Priory Music and Art Festival!
