A high-quality music education should engage and inspire pupils to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians, and so increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement. As pupils progress, they should develop a critical engagement with music, allowing them to compose, and to listen with discrimination to the best in musical canon. At Sunny Bank, children are encouraged to use music as a tool to express thoughts, have the freedom to reflect on experience and articulate their understanding. Creative play, movement and dance play implicit roles and as well as quality first teaching in music, we have had a range of musical activities:

 

·       Attending London’s 02 Arena to take part in ‘Young Voices’

·       Bhangra dance workshop

·       Weekly school choir

·       Weekly singing assemblies

·       Various drama workshops
