Music is an exciting part of life at Morton CE Primary School and we are very proud to offer a wide range of experiences for all of our pupils.

We use a teaching scheme called Music Express  for whole-class music lessons which includes lots of opportunities to use tuned and untuned percussion instruments. Particularly for our children aged 2 to 6yrs, songs are used as part of daily routines and are used across other lessons, such as Mathematics.

We have singing assemblies and collective worship, involving the children from Reception to Year 6. All classes take part in performances each year including class assemblies, child-led church services and nativities performances. Nursery and Reception work together to perform at a singing event for families, at Christmas, called Music and Mince Pies!

We have a thriving school choir for children in years 4, 5 and 6. The choir performs at many events including church services, visiting care homes, an academy singing celebration and at Lincoln Cathedral.

We are delighted to have 2 visiting music teachers for individual piano and woodwind/brass lessons. Children who play instruments have opportunities to perform for the school and parents. Some children go on to take music exams.

Experiencing live music through visits from amateur and professional musicians is another wonderful way in which we ensure that music is woven through the children’s primary school journey .
