HOW IT WORKS<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

To offer the best experience we tend to need the day in your school although shorter and longer sessions are easy to accommodate. If you wish you can add music, visual arts, (head-dresses, puppets, costumes), Capoeira, Circus Skills, and each requires an additional artist<\/p>\n

How many children can we work with?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Each artist works with a maximum of thirty at any one time. Parallel sessions are normal, so that for two artists 60 children are in a workshop at one time.<\/p>\n

How long are the sessions?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Sessions last from one hour to a morning\/afternoon depending on how many children you want to involve, your school timetable and spaces available.<\/p>\n

What equipment does Drum Jam provide?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We will get in touch with you to see what resources you have in school and calculate the cost for materials per-students depending on what package you choose.<\/p>\n

What does the school need to provide?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We usually need a main hall for a demonstration by our artistic team at the start of the day and at the end of the event if you wish the children to share a brief presentation.<\/p>\n

We need a suitable making\/art space.<\/p>\n

Anything else?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We offer a number of exciting packages and music services in schools and we offer a free bespoke planning service.<\/p>\n
