African Dancing and Drumming

Year 7 African Dancing and Drumming Incursion

To continue our Cultural Diversity celebration, last Thursday 17 May, we had a special incursion for all of the Year 7 cohort.

Here are some anecdotes from students in 7A :

Andrei Fomichev: “I would simply say it was awesome!”

Kirra Childs: “The session was fun and hands-on!”

Taylah Lewis: “I thought the incursion was educational and got to learn about the different instruments and drums.”

Nema Laut: “For me, it was a personal and new experience; it was very inclusive and lots of students got to try and give it a go.”

Isabella Sullivan: “An interesting thing to do!”

Tenilia Tong, Chanelle Turnayan and Maya Whetstone: “For us, we felt it was very interesting culturally and also we learnt about the background story of the presenter, his country and the instruments.”

Ava Coulton and Nadia Henriques: “NAPLAN wasn’t the most fun activity… but luckily we got to experience AFRICAN DRUMMING! It was entertaining and super interesting. We learnt about many different African instruments and how they work. Overall it was really good.”
