At Spring Grove we love to sing, play and perform music. We have weekly guitar lessons provided by Musica Kirklees and pop music lessons from Rocksteady Music School. Sign up on their website if you would like to join the Rocksteady Band.
Our Music Club musicians performed at the Christmas assembly in December 2021, led by Alfie from Jam Factory. The Spring Grove Singers will be performing some of our favourite songs in Huddersfield Town Hall at the Kirklees Primary music festival in June 2022.

ACTIVITY: Draw a picture whilst listening to the music. What images and ideas are coming into your head? What colours are you imagining?
Send your picture to your class teacher so that we can upload it on to this page for everyone to see.
Many of Grieg's pieces were based on Norwegian fairy stories and melodies, and he is still Norway's most respected composer. In the Hall of the Mountain King is from his most famous work - Peer Gynt. The character of Peer Gynt is based on a Norwegian folk tale. You can watch the story below.
