This week, our classroom was filled with excitement, curiosity, and plenty of wonderful sounds as we welcomed two\u00a0 S6 pupils from Eastwood High School. They led an engaging and interactive music lesson all about the different instrument families found in an orchestra.<\/p>\n

We learned about the four main instrument families: strings, woodwind, brass, and percussion. The pupils explained how each family produces sound and shared examples of instruments.<\/p>\n

The highlight of the lesson was having the opportunity to explore and try a variety of instruments ourselves. Everyone had great fun experimenting with the different sounds and learning how each instrument works. It was wonderful to see so much enthusiasm, teamwork, and curiosity.<\/p>\n

A huge thank you to the S6 pupils for sharing their knowledge and inspiring us. Who knows\u2014we may have some future orchestra members in our class!<\/p>\n
