The Goducate orchestra

Summer is coming , young people and children are free, It’s when often temptation comes for young people, that’s why we always prepare a busy schedule for them. And one of our yearly activity is our Summer Musical and instrumental Workshop.

We send our trained young people to 4 different areas, and teach children and Juniors. Jason can play violin, organ and guitar ( 3rd year education student), While Liezl ( 2nd year Tourism student—School band Member) plays, violin, flute, recorder, sax, and clarinet.

Our Orchestra can help our children in the community and they could even one day help their family earn some money whenever they can play in some occasions on celebration like birthdays and weddings.
