A symphony of safety! Playing safe.
CELLO CELLO Year 2 have had some exciting events over the last two weeks. It all started when, Michael Atkinson, a cellist from the BBC Symphony Orchestra, zoomed in for a workshop with all three classes (after a slight technical hitch with Mr Hayat). Michael played several pieces for the children and talked about the emotions they felt during these pieces. Using the BBC Ten Pieces, the children had a blast listening to the full orchestral performance of Mambo from West Side Story. Once they had listened to the music, the children found the rhythm and performed a percussion sequence. They were so good they managed to move onto the sophisticated rhythms. We may have our own Abbey cello section in the BBCSO in years to come! ALARMINGLY GOOD There was much excitement on Friday when we had a Covid friendly visit from Safety Seymour. He came to show the children the danger of Carbon Monoxide and how they can protect their home and family by following some simple safety steps. The children were amazing at remembering the danger signs and role played what to do should they ever suspect a leak. Each child went home with an alarm and a goody bag with a stunning Safety Seymour mask - you may see some of the children wearing them at the end of the day - they love them!
Thanks to Mrs. Johnson for the story.
