Every Thursday in August from 5.30pm to 6.30pm, young families and children are invited to take part in an extra special singing and music making session.
Held in the parade gardens, along side the River Fowey, this early session is free and has been created especially for families with young children so they join in the music making fun but be back before bed time.
Led by Emma Mansfield and Roger Luxton, with Lost in Song and The Playfu Chorus, Tots Rock is all about getting families and young people involved in music making, singing, shaking, clapping and foot-tapping.
If you can sing happy birthday, clap your hands or stamp your feet you have got what it takes to join our chaotic chorus.
Singers and music makers of all ages are welcome.
The Parade Gardens, Lostwithiel, Cornwall, PL22 0AD
In partnership with White Gold, Wheal Martyn China Clay Works and Cornwall Music Education Hub, Emma Mansfield and Roger Luxton are working in local primary schools to create a repertoire of original songs.
The songs and lyrics have been inspired by the Wheal Martyn Clay Works and have been written by children from Pondhu, Carclaze and Foxhole schools.
Children will be performing this original work will at 1.30pm, White River Place St Austell on Saturday 21st September. Visit the White Gold website for more information.
Really Lovely Projects and Lightbox Film Company were commissioned by St Erme Primary School, near Truro, to create a project that would engage and challenge a selected group of children from years five and six.
The school wanted a project that would involve music, new technology, art and participation. The children were taken off of their usual timetable for a week and we assisted them in writing a piece of music and create lyrics based around the school anthem. James from Lightbox then led a storyboarding process and we create a play for a video to accompany the song.
The children created their own pictures and images with UV paint and we created a black light studio where the children produce their own stop-frame sequences and we used UV body paint so they could all be featured in the film.
We are very grateful to St Erme School for giving this opportunity to work with an exceptionally talented and creative group of children.
