Music is an integral part of life at Bridgewater, extending well beyond the weekly music lessons. From our lively weekly music assemblies to our exciting termly concerts, making music and singing are warmly encouraged throughout the school. This is especially championed by our music-loving Mrs. Bettridge, who is often heard singing her way through the school corridors!

We also offer peripatetic instrument lessons in drums, guitar, piano, violin, flute, and recorder. These extra-curricular lessons are available to pupils from Year 3 onwards and take place during the school day.

Music assemblies

Music assemblies take place every Wednesday morning, offering the whole school an opportunity to sing together. A variety of songs are chosen throughout the year, often reflecting seasonal or religious themes.

Children are encouraged to showcase the instruments they are learning by performing during these assemblies, helping them build confidence in front of an audience. 

Parents are always welcome to join us for these assemblies. Staff and parents have also taken part in performances, which greatly inspires our pupils.
