On Wednesday 18th December, EYFS and KS1 put on a fantastic show.  Well done to all of them, especially those who remembered all their lines!  Thank you to all the parents who came along to see the show, we hope you enjoyed it - we certainly did!

On Wednesday 18th December, the final Choir performance of the term was singing carols at the Lambeth Primary Care Trust offices on Lower Marsh.

This is an annual event where the Choir sings to raise money for charity. This year we raised £120.00 for the Oasis Charity, Stop the Traffik.

The choir sang beautifully, with such energy. Everyone enjoyed it very much. Well done to the choir, who have spread joy amongst all, with their wonderful singing in the Waterloo area at Christmas time.

On Monday 16th December, our annual Carol-a-thon at Waterloo Station was amazing with 12 hours of non-stop singing - with the help of families and staff from Hullabaloo and Oasis Playspace, community members, as well as parents - and of course all our wonderful children and staff. Our target for this year was £15,000 for the Foodbank but this year we raised an amazing £18,800!!! A HUGE thank you to everyone who sang, shook buckets, and donated.

On Monday 9th December, we had fantastic performances from all the classes in KS2 at the Winter Concert this year. This year every class learnt to sing a traditional carol, as well as two part song with another class and then of course a whole KS2 song which raised the roof for the finale. The children played xylophones, tambourines, bucket drums, djembe, claves, woodblocks and bells to bring us some seasonal magic. Well done everyone for your team work, you sounded fantastic.

On Wednesday 4th December, the choir teamed up with The Old Vic Theatre to sing in their Twelve Choirs of Christmas carol singing event.

Johanna choir rehearsed with the over 60’s choir, The Matinee Idols, during November to prepare for their December performance.

The event was really good fun. The children and the Matinee Idols sang with such great enthusiasm, with the audience joining in some of the songs.

Well done everyone.

On Thursday 7th November, Year 4 had a fantastic time at the Oasis Music Showcase; 16 students from across Oasis London and the South East came together to celebrate music.

We performed bucket drumming to 'Pompeii' and did a piece using rhythm sticks. We were also part of the mass choir singing Emile Sande’s ‘You Are Not Alone’ and Stormzy’s ‘Blinded By Your Grace’.

It was a long day but everyone performed fantastically and had a really good time.
