Education Week Open Day Concert
Corelli Strings & IPS Choir performance on Wednesday 26th May, 11 – 11.30am.
During Education Week, IPS traditionally holds an open morning concert. We are very pleased and excited that we will be able to stage our first concert in the hall since the pandemic began.
Our Corelli Strings and Choir ensembles have been rehearsing diligently before school since the start of the year and are ready to perform.
Parents and school tour visitors are very welcome to attend. There may not be an announcement about the concert on the day and we ask that if you wish to attend just make your way to the hall at 10.50am where seating will be available. There will be a QR code outside the hall and inside, limited, spaced seating. We are asking parents to only enter the hall if there is a spare seat and stay to watch for a maximum of 15 minutes if there are people waiting to come in. Thank you.
Looking forward to seeing our extended school community at our first hall- based event in a long time.
Battle of the Bands – Years 5 & 6 Rock Bands
New date: Wednesday, 16th of June
Preparations are going exceptionally well for the Battle of the Bands concert. Apart from the 50-minute sessions during the week we have dancers and satellite bands coming to rehearse during recess times. There is even an original composition taking shape and I hope this band will be able to launch their single at the concert.
I’m looking for a video specialist.
Someone who loves to create music videos. If this is you – please come and see me. I have a past example that will give you some ideas on what I require.
The show is shaping up to be one of the best Battle of the Bands Ivanhoe Primary School has had. The talent in the school is exciting. Everything from pianos, guitars, strings, singers, dancers, flutes, clarinets and even ukulele. It’s amazing!
Due to limited numbers to make this a COVID-safe event, at this stage we are not sure whether we will be able to have parents attend but we will keep you informed.
