Wherever possible, we will take part in events and opportunities within and beyond school to broaden children's experience and provide a real-life context to learning and performance.

An example of this is our School Band. Any children in Key Stage 2 who have an interest in music and wish to play in the Band are welcome - it does not matter if they play an instrument or not. Being in the Band widens the children's musical experience and enables them to work on new skills in their musical performance including the likes of listening, collaboration, timing and harmony. It has been wonderful to see children take part and flourish, from those tapping out a simple rhythm to those accomplished at a tuned instrument.
