View our Gallery at the bottom of this page.
At Homefield Primary School, the Music Department is a joyful and inspiring space where every child is encouraged to explore their creativity and develop a love for music. Through singing, playing instruments, and performing, our students experience the power of music in a fun and inclusive environment.
Children have the opportunity to learn and play a wide range of instruments, including percussion, recorders, keyboards, and ukuleles. Our music lessons are hands-on and engaging, helping children build confidence and musical skills from an early age.
We are proud to have a thriving school choir that brings together children from across the year groups. The choir performs regularly at school events, assemblies, and community celebrations.
A highlight of the year is our Lower School Christmas Performances, where our youngest pupils take to the stage to share festive songs and stories. These heartwarming performances are a cherished tradition, bringing together families and the school community to celebrate the season with music and cheer.
For our older pupils, the Upper School Annual Performances are a chance to shine in more ambitious productions. These performances often include singing, instrumental pieces, drama, and dance, showcasing the incredible talent and hard work of our students. Whether it’s a themed concert, a musical, or a collaborative arts showcase, these events are a true celebration of creativity and achievement.

- Year 5 children have been stepping back in time and learning the traditional art of Maypole dancing! With colourful ribbons in hand and big smiles on their faces, they've been working together to master the twists, turns, and patterns of this joyful springtime dance. It's been a wonderful way to celebrate teamwork, rhythm, and a bit of British heritage — and we couldn’t be prouder of their enthusiasm and energy!

Some of the Year 5s have been creating some underscoring for the video of the ducklings hatching. We have been learning about the power of underscoring in documentary as it can pre-empt the action, set the scene and evoke emotions such as fear and sadness. We've been learning how to play the C major scale ascending and descending and, working with a friend, the children have been composing a 4-beat phrase that can be played at the same time as the scale.
