Cycle Training 

Cycle training got underway this week for children in Year 6.  Not only did they learn cycling and road safety skills but they also looked at basic bike maintenance and how to keep a bike roadworthy.  All of our children had different starting points and experience in cycling before the training but they all made huge progress.  A big thank you to our two special instructors who made the training extra special with their expert knowledge and encouragement.

St Paul's Cathedral Organist Workshops

Today was an extra special day here at SPSM as we welcomed two visitors from St Paul's Cathedral.  Mr Stephenson and Mr Bruce are organ playing and singing experts from the Cathedral and helped us to learn about the range of music that we can hear on an organ (from soothing to triumphant) alongside how to use our voices to compliment this music when we are singing.  Mr Stephenson told us lots of amazing facts about the organ.  It is a little different from a piano with three keyboards which are played with the right hand, the left hand and even the feet (many organists wear special playing shoes)!  The whole school really enjoyed joining in with the music, the workshops and assembly.  Thank you to our visitors!
