ARTS WEEK HAS BEGUN IN OLIVE TREE CLASS!

Arts Week has begun and Y3 Olive class have been studying the Russian ballet, 'The Firebird.'

Arts Week is dedicated to ALL the arts and we kicked off our learning writing and performing poetry about the wonderful Firebird's song...


Using movement, voices, body language and expressions, alongside percussion instruments we brought our poetry to life with fantastic performances! We even composed our own unique melody for the Firebird's song using the xylophones!


Here is an example of some of our poetry and photos of our amazing performances...

The Tweet of the Firebird - A song of passion!

The Firebird opened it's beak and started to sing...

Magnificent guitars making magical melodies,

Shocked,

Never want it to end,

Overwhelmed,

Mystical song of dreams,

Flabbergasted,

Glorious drums,

Impressed,

Flowing harmonies like rivers of beauty,

Lost for words,

Mystical music dancing through the night sky,

Intense,

Firebird, Firebird - never leave!

Firebird, Firebird - Stay with me!
