Creative Music Making
Primary 6 and 7 ended their Creative Music Making workshops by attending a concert at Howden Park Centre. Olly, Owen and friends entertained us with their musical talents and some of our children joined them on stage.
Thank you to Olly and Owen for this opportunity.
Creative Music Making in Primary 6 and 7
Olly and Owen have joined Primary 6 and 7 over the past three weeks for Creative Music Sessions. These sessions introduce children to live, orchestral music and today they performed for some of the other classes in the school and staff.
P4 National Youth Choir of Scotland (NYCOS)
Success criteria:
I can sing with others keeping in time and in pitch.
I can listen to more complex rhythms and copy them conveying my thoughts e.g. clapping, tapping on my body.
Primary 4 have been very lucky to have lessons with Miss Geoghegan from The National Youth Choir of Scotland (NYCOS). Miss Geoghan has been using songs and games to teach the children about time, pitch and rhythm. This is helping the children to develop their skills and confidence in performing in an active and fun environment. The children have been very keen to take part in the songs and games and are looking forward to their next lesson.
Creative Music Making in P6 and P7
Olly and Owen joined Primary 6 and 7 for their first out of three Creative Music Sessions. These sessions introduce children to live, orchestral music, today’s session focussed on Samba. They learnt about the rhythms and instruments of Brazil whilst developing their team work and listening skills.

Harry Potter Lunch Time Club
Some of our P5 children had an idea to run a Harry Potter Lunch Time Club. They made a plan of what they would do, collected the resources they needed and made up a register.
This week the focus was on creating a wand and everyone who came along said they really enjoyed it and are looking forward to the next session.
