Junior School Prospectus
Music
Music is an integral part of College life for Junior School pupils and every boy who learns an instrument at school is invited to participate in an ensemble. In Year 3 all boys are taught a stringed instrument and in Year 4 they all play brass or woodwind during their music lessons. There are lots of opportunities to perform throughout the year either as a member of a choir or in one of the Co-curricular clubs are popular too; using the Macs in Music Technology or playing the drums in Percussion are particular favourites with the boys. many Junior or whole College ensembles and orchestras.
Drama & Performance
All boys in the Junior School participate in regular class assemblies and perform in a Year Group play or drama event at several points in their Junior school careers. Year 6 productions in the Edward Alleyn Theatre have included ‘ Peter Pan ‘, ‘ Joseph’ , ‘ The Lion King’ and ‘Seussical’ . Theatre visits are organised for all Year Groups and theatre groups visit us regularly. LAMDA speech and drama classes are available from Year 4 as a co-curricular option with classes at lunchtime or after school. LAMDA gives boys an appreciation of poetry, prose and play text and a chance to develop their communication and performance skills.
