YEAR 5 - ORCHESTRA UNWRAPPED 

Thursday 2nd November 23


We have managed to secure enough tickets for all Year 5 pupils to see the Philharmonia Orchestra play at the Royal Festival Hall. ‘Orchestra Unwrapped’ is an initiative to give thousands of children aged 7-11 the opportunity to hear a symphony orchestra and learn more about classical music in an engaging, entertaining and age-appropriate performance.

The theme of this year’s concert is’ Celebrating the Sounds of America’. Pupils will hear a variety of music including works by Dvorak, Jopland and John Williams. They will also have the opportunity to sing along with the orchestra in an audience participation piece called ‘Home Within My Heart’.

The concert will take place on Thursday 2nd November at 1pm. We will be travelling to and from the venue on public transport, leaving at 10am and returning by 4pm. All pupils will need to wear full school uniform and bring a packed lunch & water bottle in a rucksack. 

The cost of the Trip is £5 and needs to be paid by Friday 13th October. Please log onto your child's Arbor account to  make payment under Activities/Trips.

As part of the entry point to our Autumn 1 topic, ‘Changes in Britain from Stone Age to Iron Age’, we would like to invite your child to the Year 3 sleepover. The children will have the opportunity to learn survival skills such as fire safety, shelter building and much more.  

The sleepover will take place on Friday 3rd November 2023.  On the day, we ask you please to collect your child as normal at the end of the day.  They will then need to return to school at 7pm in their pyjamas with the following:
