Let's Jam, it's our band!

Fourth grade is the oldest year group in Rockenbaugh, so this is their final term before moving up to Eubanks Intermediate School. Their swansong is a big musical performance program which this year was called 'Lets Jam, It's our Band'. Each of the five fourth grade classes had a music genre to depict: motown, reggae, country, blues, and surf rock. They sang a classic song from the category with the overall message being that all music is good and we can enjoy it all. The show was organised and directed by the school music teacher, Mrs Smith, and she delegated the task of stage design and costuming to a group of parent volunteers, of which I was one. It was great to get together with a group of mums and get to know them better whilst ironing on, gluing, sticking and getting all their outfits ready. The kids really loved performing their show and singing their songs, and threw themselves in to it, a fantastic evening was had by all.
