Round Square Musikscool Event
Fundraising for Round Square
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit the Round Square Musikscool JustGiving page.
This year's Round Square Conference at Wellington College brought together 500 pupils from 80 schools in 27 countries in order to complete a Musikscool challenge. In one evening, on the 18th October 2011, we recorded an anthem written by Round Square committee members. It's called "Hand in Hand", and was learnt, rehearsed and performed with 500 voices in just 3 hours. The theme of this year's conference was "Beyond our limits", and this challenge certainly achieved that!
To see the video of the event (we think it's awesome!) please make a donation on this page and help us raise £50,000 for the Masoyi Special Care Centre for children in South Africa. We will then send you a link to the private YouTube video.
Round Square is a world-wide association of more than 80 schools on five continents sharing unique and ambitious goals. Students attending Round Square schools make a strong commitment, beyond academic excellence, to personal development and responsibility. This is achieved by participating in community service, work projects, exchange programmes and adventuring, which can, and often does, take students half way around the world.
The event was conceived and facilitated by Musikscool, who work with schools and businesses using music as the vehicle for learning. The video was edited by the teenage creative team at Youth Media Agency
