Learn and Explore Visit to Holy Family

Ms Bridge and group

We welcomed expert violin teacher, Dorothy Conaghan to the project today. Dorothy worked with all three classes and also conducted a workshop with the band . I was very proud of all the classes who listened so carefully to everything she had to say. You were a credit to me and your teachers

The groups worked on their new tune and variations.  We also played a cool calypso.  It was lovely to work in the hall and we look forward to seeing the photos from Press 22 hopefully in next week's Clare People .

My Connolly brought his fiddle and we had a great 3 part jam on a groovy new tune 'Calypso'
