Portico Music Event

On Thursday 2nd May, children from across the Portico Trust were brought together in the first trust wide music workshop.  The children came from years 1 to 4, spanning the ages 6 – 9 years old.  With kind permission from David Stanley at The Music Man Project, they worked together, under the direction of teachers Sandra Baines and Nina Bemister, to create a version of the beautiful song Peace and Hope using tuned percussion instruments and a small but perfectly formed choir.  The shared outcome was very uplifting and we hope that this will be the first of many music workshops whereby the children from across the trust can gather together to make music, explore ensemble work and perform together.
