We are grateful to all the day school teachers (David Queen, Deb Lees, Andrew Nolan and Murrough Landon), class musicians (Barbara Manning, Ken Martlew and Dave Hall) musicians' workshop lead (Màrtainn Skene) and the many helpers, dancer sand workshop musicians who contributed to a lively, convivial and productive day.
