PPR enjoy African drumming
PPR had a wonderful time at the African Drumming workshop. Rodgell told us the story of how the men from an African village stole the drums from the monkeys because they wanted to be able to play the exciting music themselves. The children learnt simple rhythms by following Rodgell and then they had a chance to make up some of their own rhythms. At the end of the day we enjoyed performing to parents and grandparents who had come to watch.
