Orchestra
Our school orchestra has been running for many years, lead by our Music coordinator Mrs Morley. Anyone who can play an instrument is welcome, no matter what ability or experience they have, or whether they are having lessons in or out of school.
The orchestra meets every Wednesday after school to rehearse the pieces they are learning for the various performances that take place during the school year. These include Christmas concerts, musical afternoon performances and the Bexley musical celebration at the Royal Festival Hall in the summer term.
Choir
At lunch time on Thursdays, Mrs Morley runs school choir rehearsals. All children in KS2 can join. They learn and practise songs to perform at our regular school concerts as well as having the opportunity to perform at other events such as the 'Young Voices' concert at the O2, Greenwich.
The choir also does a lot of fundraising and supports the local community by performing their beautiful music for the public to enjoy. An example of their great work can be seen in our links with Queen Mary's Hospital where the children often perform for the patients there.
Recorders
Recorder Club usually takes place at lunchtimes too. Children are welcomed from Year 2 upwards and also take part in whole school performances, such as the Christmas Concert. Once children reach a certain level on the recorder they can join the orchestra.
Instrumental Lessons
Individual and group lessons are available at school, provided by Bird College and Sherwood Park staff on a selection of instruments. Please contact Mrs Morley through the school office for more details.
