This afternoon, as part of our music case study, we have been lucky enough to give the children the most incredible experience. We have had a visit from one of our fantastic parents, Mr Lamb – who just so happens to be a very talented Opera Singer.
He shared with the children his life as a singer, taught us some vocal exercises, talked about singing all over the world and performed a piece from Carmen for us.
The children and staff are feeling very lucky to have had such a magical experience as part of our expedition.

This week we have gone for the famous composer, John Williams. We have picked five songs for our play list – but we think as you look at home you will find hundreds more that we could have used!
Enjoy, Mrs Parsons xx

Firstly, a huge thank you to all those parents who attended our year two parent sessions today. I hope we were able to give you an idea of what to expect over the coming weeks for you and your child. Also, how we can work together to give your children the best experience during their last two terms at Norton Infant School.
Please find below a copy of the slides used in our meeting. We will also send home a copy of the pack for those parents unable to attend.
If you have any questions or concerns going forward, please don’t hesitate to ask one of the year two team or drop me a message on ClassDojo.
Thank you for your support,
Mrs Parsons 😊
We had a busy crew meeting this morning! We have been thinking about why it is important to be not just physically healthy, but mentally healthy too. We created an anchor chart – we have pledged to try as many of the things on our mental health list before the end of the year! Great job Crew Parsons xx
We started our morning yesterday reflecting on how we were feeling using our zones of regulation. Next we thought about how the characters in our core text might be feeling at different points in the story. We had some very mature conversations – great job year two.
This week we have moved onto reggae music and we are enjoying music from Bob Marley!
Happy listening,
Mrs Parsons xx
We were so inspired by our visit from Geoff and Dave today that we decided to design and make instruments to create a Class 6 orchestra.
Today, we were really lucky, Geoff and Dave came to perform for us. We really enjoyed experiencing live music. We even got to join in and become musicians – we sang a Beatles song!
