On Wednesday 18 April a group of Year 8 students took part in a music technology workshop where they learned about DJing and Beatboxing. The students worked with two professional musicians, who demonstrated some of their own work, and then helped the students to create their own piece. The students played instruments, used the DJ and mixing equipment, and wrote their own lyrics to perform a Reggae song on the theme of ‘school life’.

The workshop allowed students to think about potential careers in the music industry, and also developed their performance and composition skills. All of the students thoroughly enjoyed the day, and we look forward to making more music together in the future!
