Year 4 trip to see Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra

January 30, 2025 12:15pm

On Thursday year 4 went on an exciting trip to the Portsmouth Guildhall to watch the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra - Explore the Orchestra: Sea Stories. We had lots of fun exploring the different parts of the orchestra and finding out about its range of instruments. The children watched in awe as the orchestra performed pieces ranging from Tchaikovsky’s The Tempest to, You’re Welcome from Moana. They also had fun using their bodies in body percussion and signing along in Makaton to the song Enchanted Isle. 

The children braved the weather and walked to Fratton train station where they caught the train to Portsmouth and Southsea train station then onto Portsmouth Guildhall. We even received an email from a member of the public commenting how well behaved the children all were on the train, well done everyone!
