Room 7 performed to the residents of Yvette William's Retirement Village on Tuesday.
The performance was completely a collaboration by the students. Everyone offering their ideas and skills. We performed two songs. While a lot of work went into the songs, especially by our guitarists, we were not worried about it being perfect. We decided we really wanted to bring a bit of joy to our audience. Five boys dressed up as the Beatles (and their manager) for our '8 Days a Week' performance. On the way home the manager was questioned about payment. He promised each a quarter of what we made. I said, "I'm affraid you made nothing."
Such a positive bunch in Room 7, "a quarter of zero then..."
I have emailed the videos of the performance but added a picture here as the videos were too large. Thank you so much to the parents who came on this trip, we hope you had a great laugh too.
We have also been enjoying several sessions with our Sports Activator, Naomi. We have been doing lots of activities that involve teamwork, communication and adapting to things when there is a challenge.
