Year 3 Practice Recorders for Lower School Concert

Year 3 have been extremely busy practising their recorders in preparation for next week’s Lower School Concert. The recorder is the perfect introduction to orchestral woodwind instruments, and some of our former Year 3 pupils have gone on to take up the oboe, bassoon, flute, and clarinet in later years.

Mrs Sclater has been very impressed by their focus and determination in lessons, with a strong emphasis on playing with the correct technique and producing a beautiful sound when performing as a whole class.

Everyone has enjoyed hearing some of our pupils play more advanced pieces in informal performances at the end of lessons, following individual tuition with Mrs Pugh or participation in our Year 3 recorder club. Mrs Sclater would like to extend the offer of a recorder club to these children in Year 4, so they can continue learning together. Watch this space!
