The sounds of music have been heard all over school this week with singing practice, curriculum lessons, whole class percussion, brass and woodwind lessons as well as the individual piano and drum kit lessons. Both choir and music community group were also sounding great as they continue to learn new music to perform. A lovely week for all involved, thanks to the children we’ve taught!

Pizza Base Printing!
This half term in art we have been learning about different methods of creating prints. Today we learnt about William Morris and then created our own water inspired print using quarter of a polystyrene pizza base! First we had to draw our design before colouring it in with felt tip pen. Then we sprayed the printing block with water and used it to print! We had to repeat the process 4 times to create a complete circle.
Here are some of our artworks. We are very proud of them!

Our New Pets – Sheldon and Michelle!
Today Haughmond and Pimhill were very excited to welcome two new members of our school community. Sheldon and Michelle are our new Giant African Land Snails and they will be living with us in our classes, where we will learn lots about them, including how to look after them and take responsibility for living creatures.
Homework 28th January 2022
Today in class we have been thinking about how we could welcome Caleb, the refugee in our story, to the UK. For homework this week I think it would be nice for you to write a welcome message to a real refugee arriving in the UK.
You can do this at Refugee Council Welcome Messages
If you would like to, you can take a screenshot or copy and paste your message and send it into school so that I can see it too.

Notes from the Music Room 14, 28 January 2022
This week we’ve really embraced what being a musician is all about. Singing has been confident and enthusiastic, choir welcomed new members and all left their session with smiles on their faces and a spring in their step. Key stage 2 learnt to compose fanfares on their pbuzz and recorders in their lesson outside in the sun with Wrekin and Grinshill learning to perform their fanfares as part of a marching band in the ball park showing their teamwork and coordination. Music Community Group also welcomed new members and learnt about Samba music. The group put together a performance of Seven Nation Army Samba. Along with this, children have also been enjoying their individual instrumental lessons to continue to build on their skills. Well done everyone and thank you for your hard work!

Notes from the Music Room 13
The music room has been very busy this week, with Mrs. Kessel-Fell teaching music links to class topics. Pimhill are learning about the Islands of the world and their cultures and music. Haughmond are enjoying holidays and sounds of the sea. Grinshill are studying the music of USA, Stiperstones are exploring the music of Eastern Europe and Wrekin are discovering the Music of the Mayan culture. Please ask your children to tell you what exciting things they’ve learnt about.
Last term was Mrs. Alston’s last term teaching at Bomere Heath due to her expanding teaching commitments, however she has left with fond memories of the dedicated pupils she taught and their excellent performances at the end of each term. Taking over from Mrs. Alston is Mr. Morris, who is an experienced piano teacher and clarinetist. He has recently moved to Shropshire and is settling into teaching in this area. If you are interested in learning to play the piano, Mr. Morris has availability and would be pleased to teach more Bomere Heath pupils. Please contact Shropshire Music Service for more information.
Mrs. Roberson continued to work with classes on their composition challenge for this term. Each class continued to learn how to read pitch and rhythm, composing short melodies using particular notes. Stiperstones and Wrekin also demonstrated dynamics on their pbuzz whilst playing their composed melodies. The challenge will continue next week!
Choir and Music Community Group are starting again next week. Mrs. Kessel-Fell and Mrs. Roberson are looking forward to seeing some existing members and hopefully new members too. Please see Mrs. Winwood to sign up for either club.
