Early Years 4

“It is always a highlight of the school year when Earthsong bring their workshop to The Lawns. Storme and Gill took us on an immersive journey to Africa and together we explored first hand a wide range of instruments. The children spent a whole hour each in the workshop and were fully engaged throughout. They learnt about musical themes such as loud, quiet, fast, slow, tempo, beat and timing whilst having such fun!”
