Music

We want all our children here at Thornlow to acquire an understanding and a love of music which will continue to grow long after they have left us. Music, here, is not just for the talented. It is for everybody. And it is fun!

Children learn about the theory of music and composition. We introduce them to a range of periods and styles extending from hip-hop to Mozart.

We make music, too. We want every child to learn to read music and play and instrument before they leave us. Individual music lessons are available in many instruments including piano, violin, guitar, flute and saxophone.

In addition to our instrumental ensembles, we are exceptionally proud of our sea shanty choir, the Lobster Pot Rebels.

At the end of the first half of term, Years 1-4, who make up the choir, produced a wonderful performance of "Mr SkellyBones".

The musical takes a trip around the human body explaining how it functions.  The songs were lively and toe tapping and the dances made everyone want to join in!

Parents and friends enjoyed a delicious afternoon tea and then went onto hear recitals from piano, guitar and saxophone students who showed their developing talents to the best of their abilities.  Welldone everyone who performed.
