Happy Christmas 2022!

December is not the quietest of months for a music teacher, but it has been very special time celebrating christmas through music including: nativity plays, carol services, christmas concerts and thanking over 90 parents for their wonderful support over the last year by sending a video home of their child enjoying playing their favourite Christmas song.
A perfect finale was to enjoy dancing and singing the night away with family watching Jamie Cullum.
Hope you all enjoy your Christmas and I look forward to seeing where our musical journeys take us in 2023!
Great News for Music Education!

The Department of Education and Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport have released the refreshed National Plan for Music Education, titled ‘The power of music to change lives’.
The introduction states 'Music is a cornerstone of the broad and balanced education that every child should receive. It touches hearts and minds, it celebrates and challenges, and it connects us and moves us.
In the same way that we teach children literacy and numeracy to prepare them for adult life, we must also give them the musical tools they need for a lifetime of music-making and enjoyment. For some, music will be the foundation of a career in one of the country’s most important and globally-recognised industries. For others, it will provide experiences and skills which develop their creativity. For many, music will simply be a source of joy, comfort and companionship throughout their lives'
What a privilage to have a job where we have the opportunity to do the above every day.🎹🎼🎤
