Here’s what I’m planning to do with all the classes this term although I often end up making changes to my plans as I go depending on what arises in class! I generally try and do a mixture of performing, listening and composing with all classes each term but usually with more performing than the other two elements of music. Sadly we are not able to sing in most classes at the moment which means I am not able to run my Community Christmas Choir this year. Thank you again to everyone who supported this last year and sang at the airport. It was a super day.
