Story
I am thrilled that WE have raised the money to put music back on the curriculum for the children of Barn Croft Primary School. However, we need to continue to raise funds to pay for the lessons and equipment.
The Benefits of Music Education .
More Than Just Music. Research has found that learning music facilitates learning other subjects and enhances skills that children inevitably use in other areas. ...
Language Development. ...
Increased IQ. ...
The Brain Works Harder. ...
Spatial-Temporal Skills. ...
Improved Test Scores. ...
Being Musical.
On the 15th October 2017, I will be running in the Birmingham International Marathon to raise funds towards keeping music at the heart of the curriculum at Barn Croft.
Please sponsor my efforts - I would dearly love to raise £3 for each pupil (there are 189 pupils currently). This would be an incredible sum but let's shoot for the moon to hit the tree tops!
