In this session participants are invited to come together in celebration of the positive impact of singing and the voice. This session facilitated by our singing lead Vivien Ellis will be an energy filled journey through a mix of singing and vocal styles. From sea shanties, to old English chants, choral favourites written by the singing group and some improvised rounds and soundscapes. There is something in this session for everyone. 
This session opens at 12:45pm for a chance to catch up and chat before we begin singing. 

3:00pm – 4:00pm: Poetry with Angie Smith

 In recognition of the New Year Angie work on free verse poetry, scaffolded through the session by removing grammatical structures from sentences to leave space for the exploration of poetic techniques for embellishment.
