Samba plays the Market!

Bruche Primary School entertained shoppers with Samba music at the Christmas Grotto in Warrington Retail Market. Bruche played Christmas Samba for busy shoppers: stopping most in their tracks.

The festive gathering organised by Warrington Disability Partnership certainly lifted the shopper’s spirits; with one saying ‘It was the best thing he had heard in a while’ and that he was now feeling quite Christmassy.
Shopping can be a strain on anybody and especially at this time of the year. The band which is only a year old was led by their choir master Mrs Angela Skelton, who has only been playing drums for two years herself. Fifteen children joined her around the Market Christmas tree to play drums ranging in size from hand held to hip high monsters that needed to rest on the floor, some as big as the drummers playing them!
The children put on a great show with the drums and certainly woke everybody up, then when they finished playing they sang some beautiful Christmas songs with three children singing solo’s. Everybody watching thought they where fantastic.
