Most of all it teaches them how to have FUN!
It develops and requires coordination of fingers, hands, arms, ankles, and legs, as well as real control of the back, chest, arms, and leg muscles.
We bring enough instruments for all (no sharing, no waiting your turn!)
We work with:
Pre-school children (including nurseries, parent-and-toddler groups, and Surestart programs)
Schools: We'll work with your Primary, Secondary and Special needs pupils, provide INSET days, staff training and team-building events and even come to your conferences
Playschemes, Cubs, Scouts, Guides, after-school and holiday clubs
Our events fit with National Curriculum targets, for example:
Responding to signals
Working with timbre, pitch and rhythm
Developing listening, composing and performing skills
Linking with PSHE and Citizenship
Our events can be tailored to meet your requirements:
Cultural awareness - We bring drums and music and stories from many world cultures
Arts weeks - We can work with groups from 6 - 100 for one-off workshops or structured courses leading to a performance.
Story telling workshops - weaving stories and rhythm into an exciting and energetic "rhythm bash"
