Black History Month
Black History Month October 2018
Black History Month is a wonderful time of year to remember history and the themes that run throughout different cultures, races, beliefs and religions.
At MPS, teachers focussed on one British person who is contributing to society in a powerful and effective way.
4N chose to investigate Kingslee James McLean Daley (born 1 December 1983), better known by the stage name Akala, is a British rapper, journalist, author, poet, and political activist. They read his book Hip & Hop- You Can Do Anything.
A HUGE well done to all in 4N, but particularly to the children in the video.
Here they are explaining some of their learning.

The End of Project 1
PRESTO AND ZESTO IN LIMBOLAND
5R were invited to work alongside the London Symphony Orchestra for the release of a new story by Maurice Sendak. They were first asked to learn two songs by the composer Rachel Leach, to perform with other schools and the orchestra.
They went to The Barbican Centre to perform their songs and learn more about the book. The children were very well behaved and enjoyed the story. They wrote some letters for Rachel (which you will see in the clip) explaining their trip day and the characters within the story.
Rachel Leach and three LSO musicians then joined 5R, so they could make their own piece of music for one of the characters in the story- The Dancing Witch. The children performed in front of Year 5 and were fantastic.
I am very very proud of every member of 5R-they worked incredibly hard and produced great work. This is just the beginning.
Have a look below at their work!

Yesterday, Year 5 visited a local secondary school, Mayfield School. They were invited to see what wonderful learning had taken place in the Autumn term in the Mayfield music department. Most of the feedback I received was that of awe and excitement, as well as thoughts about performance and talent. Having viewed the footage of some of the acts, I was equally impressed by the level of talent and performance in Mayfield.
It did cause me to think that we have fantastic talent at MPS and how I would like that to be demonstrated by the children of MPS. So there will be opportunities to join music groups and clubs etc. and performances throughout the year, in which we may have a Mayfield audience instead!
There are still spaces in choir on Monday 3.30-4.25 Yr 3-5 in the music room which will resume in the Spring term. Please sign up on parent pay. There will also be recorder, ocarina and trumpet club coming soon! Watch This Space!
Well done to Year 5 for being an incredible audience- the head of Mayfield's music department was very impressed. Keep up the great work!!

It has taken an extremely long time to try and sort out the video for the commemoration of World War 1. 4 videos, 3 computer programmes, 4 singing assemblies and 150 permission slips later...I can now release the 2018, 100 years WW1 video. Thank you to Year 3 and 4 for their hard work and dedication to the organisation of the singing, Year 6 for their hard work of the poppies and Billy for the incredible work on the garden!
Keep up the great work!
