A Summer Term of Music Making 
We had a busy time in the Summer term 2017.
The Choir and Haze Samba performed at the school Summer Fete in June. We also had the Year 2 Production – ‘Hazelwood’s Island Adventure’ – in June, featuring our Year 2 violinists playing in the overture.
At the beginning of July the String Group, Wind Band and Haze Samba performed at St John’s Church Fete. They all played brilliantly and it was a lovely occasion. Well done!
We took the Choir to sing at the Partnership Schools’ Music Festival at Highfield School where they joined with children from Highfield and Wilbury. It was a fun morning and our children sang and behaved beautifully!
The highlight at the end of term was the Year 6 production of ‘A Tale As Old As Time’. The whole year group took part and the show was a huge success.

Christmas Music Concert- Tuesday 13th December 2016
A huge congratulations to Ms Halpern and all of the musicians and singers for an amazing musical extravaganza. We had over 120 children perform in the Christmas concert this week. The school was filled with the beautiful sound of the Hazelwood Choir, Haze Samba, the String and Wind groups and of course our very brave and super talented soloists and of course the very talented Y6 Girl Group. The orchestra and choir had the audience spell bound for an hour and a half. It showcased the wonderful talent and provision we have at Hazelwood and the importance of music and singing within our school. Congratulations to all involved. Check out some of the photos and videos of the performance below.
