#### **This week it's all about: Animals (with an inter-house competition)**

The theme will be 'Animals' and the animal reference may be found in either the song title, the name of the group or a combination of these. If an animal name is spelt incorrectly but sounds correct such as the Beatles, then we'll class that as valid.

There will be a playlist of 10 songs per day to answer played across break and lunchtime. Pupils should send their answers to Mr Taylor by the end of the week.

So, will you be on your Tiger Feet or dancing to Adam and the Ants, or maybe Mr Farron will be singing along to The Octopus's Garden by The Beatles!

*MaBaL (music at break and lunch) is music played through the school's speaker system during break and lunch.  Chosen by Mr Taylor, Lead Teacher for Music, this is designed to offer exposure to the curriculum in different ways, and support pupils' appreciation of music.*

*The focus is on one theme each week across a genre, a country or from history.  The theme could also link to the season or an event in school, such as the musical production.  Any further suggestions are welcomed - pupils should see Mr Taylor or email <a.taylor@priory.lancs.sch.uk>*
