Music
A
s always, the musical life of the school has been rich and varied this year. Congratulations to all our pupils and staff for everything they have achieved.
St Peter’s 2-8 In January, children from St Peter’s 2-8 participated in Young Voices in Sheffield, the largest school choir concert in the world. The children sang with over 4,700 other children from lots of different schools. They sang Somebody to Love with Tony Hadley and also joined in with performances from The Shires and Ruti who won The Voice UK in 2018. The children worked so hard to learn the lyrics and dance moves to a wide variety of songs, and they were a credit to the school. During lockdown, children in Years 2 and 3 also joined in with the Young Voices at Home project, which involved over 20,000 children. At 2.30pm on Tuesday 2 June, children across the world joined in singing the song Power in Me composed by Rebecca Lawrence. Mrs Hayden said: “This song was already a favourite. The words fit many of our school values; the opening line for example, fits perfectly to this half term’s value of Endurance - “When the race is nearly done, and I feel I can’t go on, I know I can do something about it!” We were all missing singing together as a school, so this was the perfect opportunity to help us continue something we love!”
