Every child across the school from EYFS to Year 6 chose their favourite musical icon and dressed as them for the day. Some children even came to school ready to perform with pages of lyrics and working instruments.

The school was overflowing with Ed Sheerans, Taylor Swifts and Eminems - with some unique artists like Dolly Parton, Noel and Liam Gallagher and Amy Winehouse. It was a fantastic opportunity to discover some unknown interests of the pupils and also raise money for the ukuleles.
