This week we had a very special singing performance by Year 2 children Jack, Ellen and Charlie, accompanied on ukulele by children from Herons. They chose to perform ‘How Great Thou Art’ and ‘The Wellerman’ and we were all blown away by their confidence and wonderful singing voices! As it is the time of Lent when Christians remember the time leading up to Jesus’s death on the cross, we learned the second verse of How Great Thou Art:
And when I think that God, His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin
Also, a group of Year 6 children announced a whole-school musical project: each class in our school will be filmed performing a song or piece of music and it will be edited together to showcase all of the wonderful musicians we have here. Stay tuned for forthcoming updates!
