YR5 Falcon Class News @FP
Falcon Class @FP have been thoroughly enjoying their Music lessons this term.
The children have been enthusiastically exploring the classic rock hit “Livin’ On a Prayer” by Jon Bon Jovi. They’ve not only sung the iconic melody but have also begun learning to play key parts of the song on the glockenspiel. Their confidence and musical skills are growing with each session!
Building on this strong foundation, the class has now moved into the exciting phase of improvisation and composition. Students are experimenting with creating their own musical phrases, rhythms, and melodies, and are beginning to write their very own music scores. It’s wonderful to see their creativity and teamwork shine through as they compose original pieces and perform them for one another.
Falcon Class are truly becoming young musicians!
In PE this term, the children have been focusing on developing their gymnastics skills — and what an exciting journey it’s been! They’ve been learning a range of gymnastic movements, including balances, rolls, jumps, and transitions, all while building their strength, flexibility, and coordination.
A special congratulations goes to Kaitlin and Ava, who have made outstanding progress — both have now mastered the front walkover! This challenging move requires confidence, control, and plenty of practice, and we are incredibly proud of their determination and achievement.
The whole class has shown great enthusiasm during our gymnastics sessions, supporting each other and celebrating one another’s successes. We’re looking forward to seeing even more progress as the children continue to challenge themselves and refine their routines.
Keep up the fantastic work, everyone!
