Welcome to the Music Room!

27th May 2022

Music at BNIS has found a new home: meticulously decorated by Ms Mucharie, it is stocked with all of the school’s music resources, from percussion instruments, to glockenspiels, keyboards and recorders. The musical displays have been thoughtfully curated, so that they include games and activities to help even those day dreamers to remember the concepts covered in class. Students are invited to take on any of the musical challenges from around the class during their free time.

Hands up if you like listening to music? Today, thanks to technology, music is simply a click away...but life wasn’t always this simple. Primary school students are in for a treat after the half term beak, as Year 7 will be taking them on a tour of musical history, documenting the story of audio recording and music consumption through time.

The final half term of the academic year will be full of plays and performances, giving students the chance to put their singing and dancing skills to the test… What happens when Daisy, the cow, buys and hides sunflower seeds? You don’t know? Allow EYFS to tell you Daisy’s story in the musical ‘There’s a Sunflower in My Supper’. The dates of this will be confirmed soon, watch this space!

Meanwhile, in Year 3 and 4, Zeus (a rapping Greek God) is worried by Hades' (God of the Underworld) attempts to train a rival athlete to face Milo (Zeus’ favourite athlete). However, Hades' man is useless (he has mistakenly trained by eating beef burgers instead of lifting a cow) so Hades tries to get the games cancelled by starting a war. A tale of intrigue ensues, all explained in fantastic songs and yes, you guessed it- Zeus also drops his self-titled rap debut track in this play. You are welcome to witness the Greek athletes ‘Go for Gold’...

The dates of these will be confirmed soon, watch this space!
