National Youth Orchestra Visit
We were excited to welcome representatives from the National Children’s Orchestra to our school. The children enjoyed meeting two very special musical instruments – the bassoon and the saxophone – and learned all about what they are called and how they make their unique sounds.
Our visitors also performed some short pieces of music, giving everyone the chance to hear these wonderful instruments in action. It was a fantastic experience that inspired lots of curiosity and enthusiasm for music across the school!
