We had an amazing assembly today with Elliot from @rocksteadymusic! Elliot introduced our children to a range of instruments, showed them what it's like to play in a real rock band, and led hands-on workshops where children (and teachers!) got the chance to have a go. The children absolutely loved it and were so inspired! Parents can now sign their children up for Rocksteady music lessons at school – a fantastic opportunity to learn an instrument, build confidence, and make music with friends. #RocksteadyMusic #SchoolAssembly #MusicInSchools #RockBand #LearningThroughMusic #InspiringChildren #PrimarySchoolLife #MusicEducation #TryAnInstrument #FutureRockStars
