The
school is currently replenishing our stock of musical
instruments. In keeping with our recycling
policy, we are
appealing to parents who have any unwanted/ no-longer used percussion
instruments at home, to consider donating them to the school.
We do not need toy instruments. Good quality drums,
triangles, cymbals, tambourines would be greatly appreciated.
We have already received some beautiful bongo drums. We have
ordered some new instruments, but any good-quality second-hand
instruments are always welcome. Go raibh maith
