Year 3 and Year 4 Band Students Teach their Parents

On Saturday 18 February, we had our first ever Hit the Ground Running Day for Year 3 and Year 4 students playing a band instrument. The girls had a fabulous day of intensive music making and it was a fantastic opportunity to get a head start on their instrument (and enjoy a sausage sizzle)! The girls also had a lot of fun teaching their parents and carers how to play their instruments, who we think have a much better understanding of how hard our girls work now!

The fabulous trio responsible for this event were Richard Coward, Head of Bands, Elizabeth Gilberthorpe, Assistant Director of Music, and Sophie Grattan-Smith, Junior School Music Coordinator, with the help from some of our Music tutors.
