Becket Primary School

Becket's had a blast being involved in the Derby Book Festival Children's Picture Book Awards 2020. This is some of the amazing artwork produced by our Year 2 and 3 classes inspired by the book 'My Hair'.

Had the most wonderfully creative 2 days of #VivaEnergy with the brilliant @becketprimary & @firsderby making new songs & instrumental pieces inspired by renewable energy - led by super team of @Jessie_Grimes @bencsik_deirdre & #AndrewCook #TooMuchFuel #ChangeYourWay

Another great morning ⁦@becketprimary⁩ with extra ENERGY for ⁦@Jessie_Grimes⁩ and ⁦@MarianneBarraz⁩ for the ⁦@sinfoniavivauk⁩ project #VivaEnergy - and I can now add coaching trumpets to my cv now! 🤣

Another super day of #VivaEnergy workshops with @becketprimary @firsderby @Jessie_Grimes @bencsik_deirdre & #AndrewCook today - incredible instruments & finishing their songs - which are sounding amazing 😊 #DirtyDieselDestruction #WeAllLikeUsingRenewableEnergy

Another excellent day at #VivaEnergy with @becketprimary & @firsderby - final rehearsals & adding BSL to the new songs with @MsSarahGatford @Jessie_Grimes @bencsik_deirdre @EllieMartindal2 ✨ Cannot wait to hear it all come together on 25 Feb 🎟➡️ sinfoniaviva.co.uk/Event/energy

For the last nine months, we’ve worked with @becketprimary Community Choir - they’ve written an amazing school song, and recorded it last month. Here’s a short clip from that session, and you can hear the full song on our YouTube channel! youtu.be/eLx6DtlnawY
