Music Lessons
At Norman Pannell we teach music lessons weekly to each class using our fantastic music programme called 'Charanga'. Each year group follows a different unit of work each half-term.
Each lesson is broken up into 3 parts:
- Listening and Appraising - The children listen to different styles of music and offer their comments about whether they enjoyed the music, what style it was, talk about the pulse and rhythm and what instruments they could here.
- Musical activities - The children learn about different aspects of music (pulse/rhythm/tempo/dynamics) through different games as well as learning how to warm up their bodies, faces and voices in order to give the best performance.
- Performance -Throughout each half-term, every class will learn a different song. They work together to learn and practise the words first and then add instruments to compliment the music.
Keep an eye out on this page for pictures/videos of class performances!
Peace Proms Concert
What an amazing day we had on Saturday at the Peace Proms concert. The children loved being a part of the Liverpool Peace choir with 2000 other children from schools across Merseyside! It was such a great learning opportunity for the choir, singing songs about Peace and Unity and an amazing experience to be able to sing alongside the Cross Border Orchestra of Ireland, the soloists, various musicians and the wonderful Irish and Highland dancers. A wonderfully inspirational day overall!
Have a look below at some pictures and video snippets of songs throughout the concert. The choir were amazing!

Years 3,4 & 6 Samba
Children from years 3,4 & 6 had the opportunity last week to form their own Samba band with the help of student teachers from Liverpool Hope University.
The children only had one afternoon with the student teachers to learn their piece and put it together for a whole school performance!
Everyone had a fantastic time and put on a brilliant show!
