Music

At All Saints' we believe that Music is a universal language that embodies one of the highest forms of creativity. Our quality music education engages and inspires pupils to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians, and increases their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement. As the children progress, they will develop a critical engagement with music, allowing them to compose, and to listen with discrimination to the best in the musical canon.

""I love instruments and I think music lessons are fun. My favourite part of music lessons are when we get to use the glockenspiels. In the past I have also learnt how to play the saxophone, ukulele and the guitar. My favourite music style is pop music."
