Ukulele Day
Ukulele Day
Year 3 have had a fantastic day working with Ukulele Dave. The children were given a fantastic opportunity to learn how to play basic chords and notes on a ukulele while improving their musical skills and knowledge. The children learned how to play tuned instruments, play in time and together as an ensemble.
The children really enjoyed Dave’s humour and musical talent. It was a thoroughly enjoyable day.
