On Thursday 9th May we had an exciting visiter to the school. They were called Rhythmic Beats. 
We each had a drum and we learnt two tricky beats. It was so exciting. We had to persist because at times it was really hard. We had to listen really hard to the beat. 

We are really good at Managing Impassivity 

We had a WOW moment listening to them
