Features

Things to note

Individual Music
The impressive individual music programme means that most girls from Year 1 upwards will take lessons with one of our seven specialist musicians.  Girls are able to choose from a huge variety of instruments including the violin, viola, cello, piano, recorder, clarinet, flute, trumpet, saxophone and cornet. Girls are prepared for ABRSM exams with aural training and rehearsals. There are two string orchestras, one wind band and a choir as well as a number of chamber groups.By playing in assembly, informal and formal concerts children learn how to perform solo and in concert with others.  We believe passionately that this develops confidence and self esteem.  Performing should be enjoyable!

Drama
Drama is integral to the curriculum. They value the confidence it instils, the teamwork it develops and the fun it allows. From the Reception Nativity to the Year 6 Leavers’ Play, there are class productions every other year where all have a chance to shine.  Every five years we put on a whole school production such as Bugsy Malone, Joseph, and The Sound of Music.
