ACTIVITY 1
Fishing (double slot)
Generations of Abberley children have been heading down to The Inkpot to try and catch one of the monsters that lurk beneath the surface. We have our very own fishing lake at school and we need to use
it. This activity is for anyone so please join whether you have never done any fishing before or whether you are a seasoned pro. Pupils are welcome to bring in their own fishing gear if they have it but if not then we can supply you with everything you need.
EACH TERM WE WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT FOCUS:
• Autumn Term: Cartoon Scores (creating the music for two Mr Bean cartoon clips)
• Spring Term: Electronica (creating a thumping electronic track as well as a chilled version of the original) - all tracks to be played at a school disco!
• Summer Term: Dramatic Film Score (creating a video from source material
of a space rocket launch and then composing a score to accompany the film)
You will be working in pairs of mixed ability and will complete the project and receive
a digital version of your work by the end of each term. You can attend one term and not the others or you may like to build your skills across the whole year? Either way I do ask, if you sign up, for you to commit to a full term due to the knock-on effect on your partner.
‘Outside the Box’ and GK
