This morning year 1 enjoyed a musical master class with Miss Fisher in the hall looking at rhythm and speed of sound. The children were able to create their own music using a range of equipment. The first produced different rhythms with their bodies and voices and then moved onto musical instruments and digital music. The children accessed the carousel of activities with the help of year 3! We had a great morning together.
