Year 4 were transported to Africa without even leaving the school grounds! The children were treated to a rotation of activities. We had a some very special visitors from Senegal to teach African drumming, dancing and singing. Mrs.Martin and Mrs.Howe cooked banana bread with the children and Miss Aston had the children drawing ancient African petroglyphs (rock art) on sandpaper.
The rest of the school were then treated to a performance of singing, dancing and drumming led by our visitors with the support of Mrs. Aston, Mr.Rodway and the whole of year 4. The teachers were so inspired by the music that they all came to the front and performed the dance (with a little persuasion)!
Thank you to everyone involved in this wonderful day!

we all had a wonderful day!-Mrs Martin
My day was brightened right up when we had a performance and it was so jolly both of the men looked very very happy and soo were we Me, Tasha and Layoni were making up little dances to this sensational music and what else I loved was that Mrs Aston and Mr Rodway were performing too we have such talented pupils AND staff in Coalway. As these men were performing for us I was gazing around and all I could see were happy faces and people tapping thier feet and swaying to the rythme I have to admit I was too!!!!!
I had a GREAT day and would love the men to come in to school again very very soon!!!!!!!!!!!

This was really fun to do I liked doing the drumming and dancing it was very tiring. The banana bread was fun to cook. The African petroglaphs were very exiting I loved drawing them. It was a good start to the weekend
it was really fun making the banna bread and doing the african drumming and the dancing
It was a really fantastic day, extremely well organised by staff and the children all seemed to really enjoy the different activities. The gentlemen from Senegal were so enthusiastic about their music, singing and dance. The banana bread tasted great definately will try to make some at home. The artwork done by the children was fantastic. It was a fun packed, exciting day and i was glad to be a part of it. Thanks x
