"I'd just like to add my thanks for the hard work that went into [the workshops]. The St Mark's students really did enjoy themselves and will have gained so much from the experience...the costumes were amazing and the students have been playing better and better over the last two months."
- Tom Slater, Music Teacher at St Mark's Church of England Academy
