Local mezzo-soprano and singing teacher Michelle Harris will be holding the first of two singing workshops for the local children at Hernhill on Saturday 19 February, from 11.20 am – 12.50pm, at a cost of £3, and will include a range of music from popular tunes to folk songs. No experience necessary, just a willingness to get involved!
The session will also include a drink, snack and a short break.
Results of the children’s fun-filled efforts be included in the Hernhill Merry-Makers’ event which is being planned as well.
Children from six and above welcomed, although if your child is younger, contact Michelle.
If you are interested in bringing your child(ren) along on a Saturday morning to the DCA, there’ll be a sign-up sheet at the Exchange Café this Friday: make sure you add your name and email address to the list, and Michelle will be in touch shortly with all the details!
Details about a forthcoming dance workshop, to be run on the same basis by Fiona Wilkinson, to follow. Families will need to be a member of the DCA to participate in the workshops for insurance reasons: you can join on the day for an annual £10 fee.
Michelle would welcome some help at the session from any musically-minded parents who might like to stay and join in, or just serve the snacks….!

We are hoping to be able to run the singing workshop as a regular, monthly event. If your child cannot attend this time around, please drop the forum / myself a line to register your interest; we will then keep you informed of future events. It’s always helpful to have an idea of numbers, so if you are planning to bring your child along, please click on the link to let me know.
If you’d like to come along and sing yourself, to support your child and the community, everyone is welcome. I’m hoping i’ll see many of you there!!
