We
have worked with a Bradford based company, Music Media UK Ltd,
who specialise in pre-match entertainment at major sporting venues
and events. The project culminated in our pupils producing
pre-match entertainment at a rugby match at Newcastle Falcons in September. The project involved our talented dancers,
singers and musicians and there were a number of roles for
non-performers. Pupils were involved in web design, digital photography, journalism and the making of a video documentary.

70
children from our four schools experienced
a package which combined sport with music and media and allowed pupils
to work with a professional team and use industry standard equipment in a
real life situation.

On
Sunday April 1st, 40 pupils from our schools visited Kingston Park, home of the
Newcastle Falcons, to watch their match against London Irish. The children were
also able to experience the pre-match entertainment produced by Music Media UK
and get a flavour of the type of performance that they would be involved
with in
September. Click on the thumbnails below to see our pupils along with players
from Newcastle Falcons and Music Media's dance group.

We
were lucky enough to secure a grant from the National Lottery body,
Awards for All. This enabled the pupils to visit Bradford during the
summer and watch Music Media at work with Bradford Bulls Rugby Club.
Pupils also visited the National Museum of Cinema and Television in
Bradford. |
