This term the children will be having lots of fun as they explore a wide variety of music and dance from around the world. They will be encouraged to move their bodies in an assortment of ways and to various rhythms and sounds. This will help further their use of the relevant English vocabulary as they will have to follow and give instructions to each other as well as to name the different body parts and the actions they perform.

Following on from last Term’s extremely popular Cooking Club we are delighted to offer another culinary based after school club this Term with the Food Explorers Club. Children will be introduced to the world of nutrition and healthy cooking. Each lesson will focus on food from a specific part of the world using a key ingredient from that country. They will be taught about the nutritional values of all the ingredients they are using and will also have their very own Food Explorers Club Passport which they will update after every club session. The club itself is run by a qualified nutritionist, Raffaella Cappello, who has an extensive background in nutrition and specifically children’s nutrition.

Ballet with Emilia Attianese (in Italian).
Our ballet classes are directed by an Italian Ballet Teacher, Emilia Attianese, founder of the Ensemble Ballet Studio school situated in West London. Emilia teaches the basic foundations of classical ballet. Thanks to her comprehensive artistic education, Emilia explores, starting from the Nursery classes, the best rhythmical and musical components, which are essential in all dance studies, promoting important achievements like: a good posture, graceful and harmonic movements, knowledge and use of direction in space, the first coordination between arms and legs and also the use of the barre to learn the fundamental positions and elements of ballet.
