PHOTOS: Early School Students Connect With St. Margaret’s Orchestra to Try Musical Instruments 

The older students oversaw an “instrument petting zoo” where young students could hear, see and even try a variety of musical instruments up close.
St. Margaret’s PreK-12 campus allows opportunities for cross-divisional connection, offering students of different ages the opportunity to experience joyful learning, connection and fun. 

The magic of St. Margaret’s early childhood-grade 12 campus came into focus last week in the Darcy Rice Center for the Arts, as orchestra students in the Upper School and Middle School had a special morning in store for Early School students. 
 
The older students oversaw an “instrument petting zoo” where young students could hear, see and even try a variety of musical instruments up close. The Early School students were drawn to the older students and their demonstrations of the cello, double bass, flute and violin. They were also able to try out a variety of percussion instruments set out on a table, including tambourines, gourd shakers, maracas, bells, guiros and finger cymbals. 
 
In addition, the Early School students listened as the orchestra demonstrated their instruments, followed by the playing of a short excerpt of Disney’s The Little Mermaid.
