Challenge Week: Drumming

February 16, 2015
During Challenge Week, pupils in all year groups studied and performed music from Africa. Learning how drums and rhythms were used in African villages as a communication tool, The challenge was to create rhythms to send a message to other children in the class. After speaking to one another using the drums, our pupils learnt an African song. 'Tue Tue' was performed in the whole school sharing assembly at the end of Challenge Week.
