Oakley Church of England Combined School
Love, Honesty, Respect
We were delighted to welcome members of the New Mozart Orchestra to our school this morning. They told us the story of Hansel and Gretel through the beautiful music by Engelbert Humperdinck and words read by a narrator. Our pupils had learnt the words to Hansel and Gretel's Dance and sang with the orchestra accompanied by Theo on the piano.
Clive Fairbairn, the orchestra's conductor, also took time to introduce each section of the orchestra to the audience with individual artists talking about their instrument and demonstrating the sound and range.
We were pleased to welcome parents and members of the village to share this very special event.
