We’re getting close - just £1281 to go to reach our target of £6k! BUT... WE HAVE TO REACH OUR TARGET TO UNLOCK THESE PLEDGES!!! We reckon if everyone who’s child is in @SheffMusicHub groups pledged just £2 we’d do it! #32DaysLeft spacehive.com/samba-for-shef…

Exciting! - I've just been given permission by our ace Head to turn all of the corridors in school into a "musical assault course" (I need to come up with a less violent name) starting with easy stimuli in EY corridor and moving all the way to pentatonics & semiquavers in Y6!
