Over the past 10 weeks P1-4 have enjoyed sessions with Paul and Becky from the Youth Music Institute, Feis Rois. They have joined us each week to teach us about Scottish and Gaelic music. We have investigated Scottish instruments, learned some new Scots and Gaelic words and took a tour of Scotland to learn the history of some of the songs we have been singing.
The boys and girls thoroughly enjoyed singing, playing games and even getting a chance to play some instruments while preparing for our Tartan Tour Showcase.
To round off our sessions we had a visit from a videographer who wanted to capture our last session and get some insights from the children and staff about the music program and its impact. We had some brave volunteers who were mic’d up and interviewed by Ruairidh about their experience.
A huge thank you to Paul and Becky from Feis Rois who travelled from Glasgow each week and provided such fun and engaging lessons.
