We were very lucky to have a 'hands on' music lesson from Mary-Carmel Rohloff last Monday. The children learned about dynamics, tempo and volume before trying these musical ideas out on various instruments.

Carnival of the Animals
We have been investigating the piece of music " The Carnival of the Animals" which is a musical suite of fourteen movements by the French Romantic composer Camille Saint-Saëns.

I loved the Carnival of the Animals when I was a child and also Peter & the Wolf by Prokofiev. Saints Saens also wrote the wedding march we had at our wedding. Great to see you kids learning a little about classical music. From Ollie's Mum.
What a lot of fun you've had room 7. I'm looking forward to seeing your adventures in term two! Kathleen (Jim's mum)
