What an outstanding night of music from SLC Instrumental Music Service. Every child and young person showed what they can do and more! An absolute credit to themselves, their schools and South Lanarkshire Council. Thank you so much for inviting me.

Saw this tonight. It resonated with much of our conversations today during Education Scotland CIC work in Exp Arts. Replace *art with *The Expressive Arts. Discussing purpose, belonging, connection, wellbeing, humanity, criticality& appreciation all through the power of the arts.
