As part of our inquiry unit, ‘How we express ourselves’, Nursery have been considering how music can be used to represent and evoke different emotions.

After listening to the Toy Symphony by Mozart, the children brought their favourite toys into school to compose their own Toy Symphony.

Lots of the students chose to use rain sticks, maracas and shakers as their toys were soft and fluffy. The students played along to the original piece and thoroughly enjoyed listening to the recordings of their performances, with lots of them expressing that their music made them feel ‘happy’.
