Black History Month - Steel Pans Workshop

Year 4 have celebrated Black History month by embracing the music created originally in Trinidad and Tobago. The children discovered the history of the instrument itself, dating back to World War 2 and the truly magical sounds the pan can make.




All the children gad the chance to practise and play on the pans.


They needed to hold the sticks in a pincer grip.


They then began to learn where the different notes were on the pans and the sounds they created.




They also had the chance to explore a range of drums.


They learnt how to create a roll sound.


The sound as a class was amazing!


They were nearly as good as the professionals (nearly!)
