Foot tapping beats rattled the rafters at the Ringwood Waldorf School when more than 100 students and staff enjoyed a magical drumming workshop.
Musicians Magic Drum were at the Steiner school as part of its Waldorf One World (WOW) Day to raise money for underprivileged children across the globe.
The fundraising day coincided with the school’s annual Michaelmas celebrations and pupils led a friendly dragon into Ringwood town centre to collected donations from shoppers.
Parents and pupils also baked cakes and tasty morsels such as soup and apple crumble to sell in school and took part in a Dragon Game across the school grounds the following day.
“It was a wonderful opportunity for everyone to pitch in, have fun, as well as make Wow Day a success,” said school administrator, Nigel Revill.
“The sound of the drumming was infectious and set all our feet tapping.”
Magic Drum facilitator, Glyn Bush, said: “It’s all about making music in the moment and going along with the beat.
“You can do as much or as little as you want. The children – and adults - really get into it.”
