As part of our celeb

As part of our celebration of Black History Month, all classes from Reception to Year 6 had a go at African Drumming. Led by the brilliant Alex from Primary Workshops for Schools, the children each had a go at learning to play the African drum which is made from wood and goat's hide. They learnt that where they bang the drum changes the sound the drum makes. They worked together as a class to create a beat and rhythm, using percussion instruments to add even more musicality to their pieces. Even the teachers got to have a go in assembly in the morning! Apparently the children were better!
