RockSteady

This morning we had a visit from Jacob from RockySteady. We enjoyed participating in an assembly and then Key Stage workshops to learn about rock band instruments and how a rock band works together – some of us even got to have a go! We were amazed how in the short time we worked with Jacob a song was learned and a performance given! Our children taking on the band roles of drummer, lead guitar, bass guitar, keyboards and vocals. WD rocked this morning!
