Sailing*£
When the sun is shining there is no better place to be than out on the water, bobbing about in a boat with just the wind to power you – the ultimate planet friendly ride. If you have never tried sailing before or if
you have and just want to learn more and enjoy a morning on the lake then join us at Upton Warren where you will receive expert training and a pick up some skills for life.
The activity will comprise of 4 weekly sessions (4th September, 11th September, 2nd October and 9th October. Not the 18th September)
at a cost of approximately £30 per child
per week. This fee will include transport, instruction and the use of boats at Aztec (Upon Warren) https://www.aztecadventure. co.uk/upton-warren/. Please be aware
that spaces are limited and there is also a minimum number of sign-ups required.
ACTIVITY 2
Music Technology Club
Music Tech Club is open to anyone of any ability, from those of you learning the piano or drum kit to those who have never even held a recorder in your hand! In this course you will learn to compose your own music using GarageBand and the MIDI keyboards.
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.
