Monthly Performing Arts Assemblies enable children to gain experience and confidence in playing, reading, singing or acting in front of an audience.

Music
The school has 3 thriving choirs that give all children the opportunity to sing in a group: audition choir, invitation choir and school choir. There are 2 major choral events:

These lessons, which attract an additional charge, take place during the normal school day.
