Our project
Little
Chalfont is an Outstanding Primary School based in Buckinghamshire, with 250
pupils aged 4 – 11 years. We believe that working together with parents and the
community achieves even greater success for our pupils!
What do we want?
We would
like to buy Roli (the latest high tech musical instruments) and also upgrade
our website in order to give our students a platform to show their work to the
parents and community that have supported them in purchasing this technology.

Seaboard
Block is a super powered keyboard with 5D touch technology. It has 24 keywave, which allows you to play
in two-octaves. Additionally, there are
200+ free sounds and a suite of music making software compatible with a desktop
or mobile device.

Who is it for?
This
is for all of our pupils, from nursery to year 6.
Why do we want it?
We currently don't have the equipment to really
immerse and inspire children in the modern, digital age of music production. We
therefore need to give them the opportunity to learn, enjoy and embrace
technology and it's capabilities
We would
like to give all of our children the opportunity to become digital music makers
and enhance
our current music curriculum. Whilst we
still want them to learn to play traditional instruments such as the recorder,
piano and ukulele, we would like to introduce digital keyboards, beatmaker kits
and apps that allow pupils to learn to manage the sound recording
and production of a band or performer's music. This technology will
enable our pupils to understand and experience the sound recording and mixing
stages of producing music – perhaps even inspiring future career choices.
Our second aim is to
develop the skills of our newly formed digital leader team and allow them to
become webpage developers. We would like
them to have their own section to promote e-safety and also add animations,
blogs, photos and videos to the class pages of our current website.
