Barbican Trip – 5^th November 2007

 On a misty grey morning, 22 children with 6 adults met at Farnborough Station entrance, ready to embark on an adventure into London.  Mrs Wilkins had purchased our group saver tickets in advance, so we went through the ticket barrier onto the platform to await our train at 9:58 am.  We were surprised how busy the train was, but enjoyed sitting in our groups, discussing firework displays, music, the stations we passed through, music, pets, music, breakfast and did I forget to mention music?

 We disembarked at Waterloo station and walked calmly and safely to the Waterloo and City line for one stop to the Bank.  Some of the children were very excited as it was their first time in London, and others had never been on the underground.  We walked up a long tunnel, up an escalator (notice how we stood on the right, letting people walk/run past on the left) and took a second underground train on the Northern line to Moorgate.

 After going through the ticket barrier, we found the yellow line, which took us along an elevated walk away from the busy streets below straight to the Barbican.   Inside we found a building of many levels, multicoloured square panelled lighting, of cement and panelled wood.  After our fortifying lunch, we felt ready for the performance.

 We first watched the orchestra process onto the stage, which was already laid out with piano, harp, percussion and double basses, chairs, music stands and plectrum.   The musicians were smartly dressed in black trousers and brightly coloured plain tops, such as cheerful orange, flaming red, and luminous green.

 The LSO had brought out their full orchestra of at least 70 musicans!  The leader of the orchestra asked for quiet, and then the oboe played for the orchestra to tune up to the same note.  The conductor, Valery Gergiev entered, as did the compere, Hannah Conway to much applause and anticipation.  The orchestra struck up immediately and played the upbeat “Liberty Bell” by Souza. 

 We then followed action cues from Hannah for the “Marche Militaire” by Schubert.  She explained that this piece of music was then snitched and adapted by Stravinsky for his “Circus Polka” written for a parade of 50+ elephants.  We clapped 12, 12, 12, 123, 12; 12, 12, 12, 123, 12 as Stravinsky loved to play around with tempo and the metre.  This had the effect of labouring the march, making the music pull and twist.  We had to touch our nose (the horn and clarinet were sharing a melody), tap our hands (the copied rhythm from Schubert), and finger our arms (the elephants dancing to piccolos and flutes) to show that we had followed the music cues from Hannah.

 The next piece was by Charles Ives – “Three Places in New England from Putman’s Camp” which had 4 sections to it; a carnival start, a wandering into a dream, a tug of war, back to reality and the carnival.  The compere explained the different sections and how the orchestra instruments played key roles, e.g. the clarinet was the little boy snoring whilst dreaming.  There were also visual cues from a superb projection of animation helping us recall the 4 sections to this tonally challenging piece of music.

 The voices of 1500 children then joined together, with some instruments too, to sing the two spiritual songs – “Joshua fit the battle of Jericho and Swing low, sweet chariot” complete with actions from Hannah, to keep us up to tempo with the

orchestra.  A member of the FJS orchestra had managed to bring their flute on the journey and played along too! 

The Copland “Appalachian Spring” was a piece of music we all recognised as the “Lord of the Dance”, but Copeland wrote it as a Canon (round) for the orchestra.  It was fascinating to watch and listen to the familiar tune passed around the orchestra until all the musicians joined together for a fabulous crescendo. 

Everyone had to watch and listen very carefully, to count how many times the trumpet player, asked his question in the “Unanswered Question” by Charles Ives.  This was a very soft, gentle piece of music.  We also had to check if the cellos and basses moved their bows at the same time as the violins.  (For the answers to both of these questions, ask someone who went to the concert).  There was another piece of animation to accompany this haunting piece of music. 

The last piece was Copland – “Hoe Down” which was like cowboy rodeo music.  Our arms waved our lassoes, we galloped our horses, looked to see who was winning the race, and nearly missed the ending! 

So if you would like to experience a live full orchestra playing a variety of interesting and entertaining pieces, with explanation, animation, action and drama, in a magnificent London purpose built hall, remember to join us on next year’s trip! 

I would also like to take the opportunity to thank the parents who gave up their time to support, to help and accompany the children on their day out.  They are Mrs Gujer, Mrs Long, Mrs New, Mr Ozturk and Mrs Wallace.  It was wonderful to share the day with them and without them the trip would not have been possible.  Thank you.

On Monday 29th October, Year 6 will be embarking on their residential visit to Little Canada on the Isle of Wight. All of the information that they need is contained in the two letters below. We are asking that if it is at all possible not to bring children in BEFORE 9:30am, we will meet in the school hall.

 We hope that all the pupils have a fantastic time and enjoy all the activities.

Gamelan Workshop
On Tuesday afternoon, 28 children, from year 6, visited Frogmore Community College to explore Gamelan – a set of Indonesian instruments made of bronze and wood.  In a 2 hour intensive music workshop we learnt that we had to work as one unit, feeling, not counting the music, which meant we had to listen to each other and play softly.  For more details please see the music section of the website.

The orchestra held they first ever concert today! They played to the Infant School and parents. The children formed an orchestra at half term and have met on Wednesday mornings. They have had only 6 rehearsals and performed three pieces for the school orchestra by William Salaman. All parts of an orchestra were represented.
Here are some pictures of the concert.

Well done to all pupils who took part, and especially well done to Mrs Wilkins who has put the Orchestra together.

New Classes for September 2007

Thank you all those who supported the afternoon. Here are some photos of the afternoon. Click on the thumbnails to enlarge. See more photos of the afternoon at the EVENTS GALLERY.

Here are some photos of the School Grounds Week Competition

We are working through a series of short pieces which are written in the key of C Major.  The pieces are a minimum of 12 bars, with labelled sections and repeats.  Some of the children find the music very easy but we have discovered it is harder to play altogether, at the same tempo, ensuring no-one plays during the rest beats.  So far, we have tackled "Miniature March" and "Jog Trot" which is a tremendous accomplishment for the children after only 2 rehearsals.   We are hoping to perform a short concert at the end of term to the school and to the Frogmore Infant School.  As most of the musicians are in Year 5 or lower school, we hope to playing to parents in the next academic year.
 

The FJSA PANCAKE BREAKFAST will be held on the morning of TUESDAY 13th FEBRUARY 8.00am-8.30am. An excellent way to start the day! The cost is just £1.00 for 2 pancakes, cup of tea, coffee, hot chocolate or juice (toast also available). Everybody welcome - bring the whole family!

Well done girls we are all really proud of you!

The boys also had football matches this week. They took part in the Farnborough Sixth Form College's Six-a-side tournament. The tournament was extremely well run by the students and they were a credit to their college. The boys who took part did better than we expected and came third out of many schools. They only lost to the eventually winners South Farnham in the semi-finals. Well done boys, we are looking forward to the next match!

Our pupils watched a play entitled 'Bully's Paradise' by Firehorse Productions. The play compliments our PSHE curriculum. The moral of the play that children learnt is that 'Everybody has the right to come to school and feel safe'.

The School Association have been hard at work recently. We will soon see a difference to the school grounds. To go alongside our school pond and sensory garden, we will soon have a copse of sixty saplings. Year 5 pupils helped out by marking the area on the school field during their maths lessons. We congratulate the SCHOOL ASSOCIATION and Mrs Cockrill for securing the funding for this worthwhile cause. We will keep you updated on proceedings. You can click on the photos below to see Year 5 marking out the copse area.

The cross-country team had great success at the first running fixture of 2006 held at Wavell School, Farnborough. The event, run by The North East Hampshire School Sports Partnership, saw over one hundred runners competing against each other from seven local schools. The Frogmore crowd were in fine voice to cheer all the runners and were lucky to see two of our pupils win medals! All the pupils tried their best and should be extremely pleased with their individual and team achievements. Thank you to all the supporters, without you the event would not be able to run. We look forward to hearing the competitors SPORTS REPORTS in assembly, posted on the sports board and here online on the school website. Here follow the results.

As mentioned in assembly we are now collecting Sainsbury's Active Kids Vouchers. We collected these last year and were able to order a vast amount of equipment for children to use during lessons, at playtimes and during After School Club. If you are collecting vouchers please pop them into the school reception where there is a dedicated box. We will keep you posted of our running total throughout the two months that the vouchers are available .

Don't forget it is SATs evening this week. On Thursday, Year 6 staff will be going through the procedure and run up to the SATs examinations due in May. The meeting will be held in the school hall at 7.00pm. If you can't make the actual meeting we will post the notes and any helpful resources on the school website.

We had a very special assembly at FJS. The Hampshire FA came into school to present us with the FA Charter Mark. Nicky Whiteman and John Ward celebrated with the children the fact that FJS has committed to developing Football at the school. At lunchtime the girls football team were presented with a plaque. This plaque will be displayed in the school reception.

Breaktime was very different today at Frogmore Juniors. Lots of children were able to buy a healthy snack during morning break. Year Six successfully ran the shop serving over quarter of the children in the school! Good work and stay healthy!

As a result of the pupil questionnaire, tomorrow we will be starting a healthy snack shop at breaktimes. Children will be able to buy healthy snacks at the price of 25p each. Year 6 pupils will be helping the catering staff to run the new venture. Children will be allowed to buy a snack and also a drink (the maximum amount the pupils will be allowed to bring in is 50p). We are encouraging children to bring in a piece of fruit for their breaktime snack.

The School Netball Team played their first match of the season today. Although the girls put all their effort into the match, and played with great sportsmanship, they unfortunately lost 9-0 against Potley Hill Juniors. Don't worry girls, we will beat them next time and you should be proud of you achievements. Don't give up!!!

The teaching staff haven taken part a display training workshop. The staff were shown examples of display best practice, learnt about different styles of displays and discussed the whole school display policy. At the end of the workshop the teachers were asked to complete a task. The 10 minute task was to make a 3D display box that only used complimentary colours. Working in groups the staff managed to complete their task and you can view the results around the school or click on the thumbnails below. We are quite proud of the results!

Can we remind all parents and pupils to name ALL items of clothing brought into school including P.E. Kit, Art aprons and kit for clubs. We accumulate a vast amount of unclaimed possessions as you can see from the example photos below, displaying the lost property gathered in just ONE term. We will be continuing to display lost property at the end of each term.
 

Our congratulations go to all the pupils that played in the Tag-Rugby match against Manor Juniors today. Many of the players have never played competitively before, compared to Manor who have a great tradition of Tag-Rugby. They are the current league champions! A great win.
