Music Ensembles, Assemblies & Choirs
Helping Every Child Find Their Voice
At Streatham Wells all children are encouraged to become enthusiastic music makers. Each child is taught to compose, perform, listen to and appraise music from a variety of cultural backgrounds.
Each topic involves children being exposed to music from a particular genre, culture and/or time. All topics have listening, appreciation and performance aspects and most also involve an element of composition.
Throughout their time with us, children’s learning is supported by having opportunities to listen to live music, including from professional musicians, both in school and through visiting other venues.
All children are exposed to a wide variety of song genres during weekly singing lessons. They learn aural skills and are taught how to sing correctly, learning how to use their whole body to apply vocal techniques to create effects for a variety of purposes. Singing is also incorporated into our whole school productions and assemblies where children get to experience the wellbeing benefits that singing with others is proven to deliver.
We have a school choir and a musical theatre club who do regular performances both in school and in the community.
