Pupils from Years 7, 8 and 9 took part in a Brass Foundations project delivered by Helen Minshall who is a Youth Development Brass Specialist for Brass Bands England’s Brass Foundations programme.
The workshop offered the chance for complete beginners to come together and learn a brass instrument.
There are many skills developed through playing a brass instrument, such as focus, discipline, and problem-solving. These can positively impact academic performance, work efficiency, and other areas requiring concentration and cognitive agility.
