Lift up your voice …

March 18, 2020 by Candida Wingate

Whether it’s from a balcony or a bathroom – lift up your voice and lift up your spirits in song. By way of a little encouragement, here’s a snippet from the Make, Do & Friends natural voice choir in Westhorpe, demonstrating just how glorious it is when we sing … as you can just hear […]

Creative Careers event at Roman Hill

January 31, 2020 by Candida Wingate

Just back from a very full morning at Roman Hill Primary School, Lowestoft, and their Creative Careers event. During the course of the morning, each Year Group visited the event and was challenged to try and guess what sort of job we did. As you can see from these suggestions, the children came up with […]

When the Youth Team responsible for planning NessFest – the Lowestoft Youth Festival – said they wanted more music this year, Rock On was delighted to get involved; so it was that yesterday Lowestoft Library throbbed with the rapid beat of drum and bass music, as DJs Steve and Marco ran workshops throughout the day.

Lowestoft Folk – and heritage open days

September 23, 2019 by Candida Wingate

A silver darling, made out of tissue paper and decorated with coloured pens

What an amazing week of Lowestoft Folk fun. First, story teller Lynn and artist Kate went to Elm Tree Primary School, where they worked in the specialist deaf and speech and language units. The children really enjoyed the story and all joined in with making their very own boats-in-bottles and silver darlings. On Saturday, as […]

Our regular sessions may have finished, but we’ve got a really exciting programme of FREE storytelling and creative activity sessions happening in Lowestoft this summer. No booking is required – all the creative activities run on a ‘drop-in’ basis and are limited only by the number of chairs we can get round the table. Stories […]

Friday was the final regular session in our Lowestoft Folk programme – and it was such fun, all the artists cried. First off, Lynn got everyone thinking about what the project meant to them, the things they had done and what were their favourite bits. Then they had to come up with a really short […]

Last night, Coppice Court organised a Talent Show for the residents and Rock On tutors Matt and Candida were delighted to support the young people as they demonstrated their musical skills and abilities.

Embroidered boats and singing circles

July 8, 2019 by Candida Wingate

Our penultimate session – and it was all hands on deck to finish off the embroidered boats, securing them in their circular frames and writing messages on the back; one pair went so far as to write a short-long poem, the last verse of which goes: – But I know the ship will Come back […]

It’s been a really busy few weeks for Rock On, with sessions in Felixstowe, Leiston, Saxmundham and two venues in Lowestoft. In Felixstowe, we’ve just completed a 6-week mini project, in which DJ and singer/ songwriter Sophie Tott introduced young adult residents at the Foyer to the joys of mixing their favourite tunes. She also […]
