Children in Forms 3, 4 and 5 have really enjoyed their brass taster sessions over the past week. Some very impressive ‘buzzing’, lots of potential trumpet, trombone and euphonium players! 🎺🎺😀#Uptonjourney @UptonForm3 @UptonForm4 @UptonForm5

Children in Form 5 have been really enjoying using our multi-coloured keyboards. As part of their topic on Space, they have been learning the theme from ‘Mars’ from Holst’s Planet Suite. Playing in 5/4 is tricky but they are definitely getting there!👏🌌@UptonForm5 #Uptonjourney

Form Four have been getting creative whilst listening to ‘Spring’ from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. Plenty of birds and streams, even a haunted house! I am sure Vivaldi would have been suitably impressed.🌷@UptonForm4 #Uptonjourney

Children in year 1 have really enjoyed working on their notation de-coding skills today. Beat and rhythm both coming along nicely! 🎶👏. #UptonForm1 #UptonJourney

Senior Choir sang beautifully at our Prep Prize Day today. Three part harmony and polyphony plus drum accompaniment and a strong message about finding their voices and listening to each other. A lovely way to finish the event. Well done girls!! 🎶🪘👏👏@UptonHead #UptonJourney
