ART Wilnecote Warbler February 2020 ART VISITS PITT RIVERS MUSEUM On the 24th of January the Year 10 Art, Graphics and Photography students visited the Pitt Rivers Archaeological Museum in Oxford, which offers an impressive collection of artefacts, photographs and manuscripts from all over the world and from all periods of human existence. This was an excellent opportunity for students to enhance their GCSE coursework by drawing from primary resources, taking photographs and gathering information. The museum collections include jewellery, amulets, masks, weaponry and even shrunken heads! It was wonderful to witness students understanding how important it is to study objects and artefacts firsthand and to experience and explore the environment they now belong to. The Art department look forward to seeing how the students respond to this wonderful place through their sketchbooks, designs and photographs. 4
Wilnecote Warbler February 2020 MUSIC MUSIC SHARE CONCERT During the Autumn Term, the Wilnecote School were delighted to host and partner the ‘Music Share - Singing for Schools Concert’ which involved local primary schools participating in one of most successful national singing outreach projects under the direction of the Lichfield Cathedral School. Last year Music Share worked with over 200 schools and it recently won a 2019 Times Educational Supplement for this project. The purpose of the concert was to establish and formalise music links with local schools and give students the opportunity to perform a variety of songs from around the world with professional musicians. Iridium, the band formed by Wilnecote School students James Bartholomew, Ben Ryan, Ben Jones and Sam Martin ,also performed for the visiting schools - receiving a rapturous applause from the audience. Mr Hyden, Head of Music at the Wilnecote School said ‘This was a great opportunity for local schools to get together and share the joy of singing and music making. I’d like to thank Cathy Lamb from the Lichfield Cathedral School for organising the event and for offering us the opportunity to work in partnership to celebrate music in schools across the area. It was a joyful experience to see so many youngsters from local schools enjoying their music making and I hope we were able to showcase and inspire music study at secondary school.’ The Wilnecote School has already agreed to host and support the project with additional workshops and CPD for primary school non-music specialists next year. 5
