Showcase Your Sound

We were delighted to take part in the Royal Greenwich Music Service 'Showcase Your Sound' performance at Blackheath Halls on Thursday 26th February.

Some of our KS2 guitar and violin students performed 'Let It Be' alongside 3 singers.  

The children performed with confidence and were rightly very proud of themselves.

Landscape art in Year 1

 Children enjoyed learning to use paintbrushes in different ways when painting landscapes.

Reception - Throwing & Catching

 This half term we are practising our throwing and catching skills. First we practised small throws by ourselves using a beanbag. We then found a partner to throw and catch with. We talked about using our eyes to look at the beanbag to help us with our aim and catching as well as what would happen if we used different types of throws such as over arm and under arm. Cherry Tree had great fun!
