Integrating music and art in the Junior classroom

In the Junior room they have been very busy making their very own musical instruments. They have recycled  old plastic bottles and turned them into something AMAZING!!! They filled the  bottles up with pasta and rice to make their own bottle unique. The first class personalised their own spoons and they turned out fantastic! Maybe brideswell will start their own junior         
Band?
