What a wonderful day we had with Jim (and his djembe) from the World Music Workshop. All the children experienced sounds and rhythms from around the world and were enthralled by the different textures and timbres created by the many drums and percussion instruments that were being played.  Year 6 showed knowledge and skill when it came to their performances and had clearly learnt a lot from their recent class music lessons on Africa. It was a really special day and I hope it will remind the children of the fun to be experienced from playing music with others as well as developing a love for music in whatever form it is heard. Go to the BCJS Youtube Channel to see the Year 6 video performances but………turn the volume down!

  1. Well done to everyone, especially Year 6 who were brilliant. Of course thank you to Jim and to Mrs Burke. A great day.
