Performing Arts Festival
Each year, in July, we hold a Performing Arts Festival. Each class immerse themselves into the culture of a chosen country. The children spend a week learning about the country and culture whist consolidating year group skills in geography, science, art and design and vital English and maths skills. The children then learn a song, poem and dance linked to their country and perform this on our performing arts day.
Learning from the week is proudly displayed in our Cultural Corridor - look at our pictures below!
During 2024, we linked our Performing Arts Festival to popular films.
