Music at St Mary & St John
Music is an important part of the school curriculum, and all children take part in singing and general music sessions in school. Some children may also wish to join the Mary & John Orchestra Strings Group or sing with the choir.
For children who would like to learn a musical instrument in school, Oxfordshire Music Service and some school specific music teachers provide a range of lessons.
Sports & Outdoor Learning at St Mary & St John
We have a sports coach who leads sports activities for Key Stage 2 children at lunchtime each day. The children are given the opportunity to take part in sports festivals and sports competitions. We have a boys and girls football team who train weekly and play regularly.
Every year our Year 6 children go on a fun filled residential trip to Woodlands Centre in Wales. When the children stay at the centre they have a week of outdoor activities including: canoeing, climbing, abseiling, mountain walking, orienteering and caving. This week is often one of the highlights of the children’s year.
