Here at the Mobile Music School, our workshops for schools keep us extremely busy! These workshops are amazingly popular in schools, because they make music fun, in a way students have never experienced before. The whole ethos of our programmes is that students are learning without realising they are learning. This means our programmes focus on fun, and making learning engaging. Read on to learn more about our drumming workshops for schools!
Drumming Workshops for Schools
Let’s Drum is an interactive, hands-on drumming workshop that introduces children to a range of percussion instruments from different parts of the world. Further, these workshops cover rhythms and patterns that are commonly heard in African and Samba drumming or modern music. During a workshop every child gets the opportunity to perform on a range of different instruments. Further, each workshop culminates in an end of workshop performance of the material covered
Aims:
- For students to get an opportunity to learn about and perform on a range of drums and percussion instruments
- To give children the opportunity to learn about the importance of the beat
- To give children the opportunity to learn about and perform a range of rhythms suitable for their class group, culminating in a group performance
What schools have said about our workshops:

“On behalf of our students and teachers, I’d like to thank you for your time and effort last week. Your drumming workshops were very enjoyable and informative. There was lots of positive feedback afterwards and I hope that the teachers will take some of what you taught back to their own classroom teaching also.”
St. Columba’s GNS, Douglas, Cork
