Music

Intent

Our aim is for all pupils to be informed, articulate, and empowered. In Music, this means children are engaged and inspired through a well-designed, sequential curriculum, a wide range of enrichment opportunities, and the chance to learn technical vocabulary that complements our teaching. Music is highly valued as part of our rich curriculum, supporting children in acquiring the knowledge and cultural capital they need to succeed in life.

Music is an essential part of our daily lives and lies at the heart of Downton Primary School. It enhances and enriches the lives of the children, who love to perform and sing together as a united community.

School Choir - Spring 2025

The school choir is a vibrant and talented group of pupils who come together to share their love of music through performances at school events and community gatherings. With a diverse repertoire ranging from classical pieces to contemporary hits, the choir provides an opportunity for students to develop their vocal skills, build confidence, and work as a team. Rehearsals are filled with energy and enthusiasm, fostering a strong sense of community among members. Please note that sign-ups for this year’s choir have now closed, but we encourage children to look out for future opportunities to get involved.

Below are the lyrics for the songs the choir will be learning and performing, along with tracks for those who would like to practice at home.
