Specialist Staff:
By the end of Year 6, all pupils have had the chance to play violin, guitar and keyboard from a specialist. We currently offer recorder and choir in after school clubs. Some children go on to join the Northamptonshire Music Service and love the experience of playing in a mixed ensemble.
We have a visiting Art teacher from the Warriner MAT. She visits the school every two weeks and provides highly quality lessons across the school. These are displayed and celebrated.
Drama - Drama is studied within the English curriculum and as part of our whole school production. Children in Key stage 2 put on a school performance each year. All children have the opportunity to have a speaking part every year. This allows students to develop the skills to be able to hold an audience while creating a believable portrayal of various characters within a range of styles. We alternate between creating our own piece and inviting the ‘Creation Theatre Group’ (Oxford) to lead our rehearsals.
