School ended with a swing today, with an amazing performance by our Steel Drum Band. They wowed everyone with their performances of “Don’t Worry” by Bob Marley, “In the Mood” by Glen Miller, and “Wipeout” by The Surfaris. Our 7 year old drummer, mesmerized the crowd with his drum solos and the steel drummers, all aged between 8 and 10 played their hearts out. With the audience clapping, cheering, dancing and singing along – it was fantastic way to see out the Spring term.
Steel Drum teacher, Brentford Handfield, was very pleased with the children’s performance and has been amazed at how quickly the children have learned new songs he has introduced this term.
Next term, we look forward to hear more new songs, building up to performances on the beach at the annual Fool’s Regatta and on the stage at our End of Year Assembly. Click on to see a video of ‘In the Mood”.
That was absolutely fantastic. Wow, I don’t know what to say. The drummer, well, I want his autograph because he is going to be famous. Being music lovers we love to hear all types of music and my husband and I both loved hearing the children. Please forward this to Ellen who I am sure will have that little drummer on her show he deserves it. Well done everyone.
