Also find out about the Musician and Entertainer, Kieran Gallagher and the many different antics that he gets up to that don’t quite fit into the usual categories.
But first, here is the latest stuff!
Actually, more "old stuff" rather than latest stuff this time.
In 2001 myself and Drogheda artists Gary Maguire, wer busily partnering up of several Costume Creation projects.
The Order of Malta ran an adult education programme for special abilities. They hired Gary and myself to work with their crew and create some more... unusual entry's for that years St Patrick`s day parade.
The sky was the limit so rockets and space satellites as well as aliens were the order of the day.
The parade itself was postponed that year due to the outbreak of Foot and Mouth. Thankfully, it all managed to get cleared up and our space craft and more had their day out.
CPD Summer Courses in Samba Drumming and Percussion.
For the 19th year, the CPD Course, “Music from Scratch through Samba Drumming and Percussion” has been given its dates and venues.
The course is a brilliant opportunity to learn rhythms, grooves, exercises, focusing games and more that will enhance, improve or just get you started on delivering music confidently in your classroom.
Some of last year’s participants comments include,
“One of the best courses I have ever done. Extremely practical, useful and enjoyable”
“Thoroughly enjoyable course, Great fun – Lots of ideas to bring back to the class room.”
And my favourite,
“Without doubt – (Teaching 20 years) the best course in terms of content – objective – individual learning development and enjoyment! Kieran made the week so engaging, he has excellent interpersonal skills and brought out the best in everyone both in musical capacity but also in terms of working together as a team”
