Class PL at Flipside

In anticipation of our involvement in the Latin American ‘Flipside’ festival, Class PL cooked a variety of Brazilian snacks, including Rabanada (a type of toasted bread) and Brigadeiros (fudge).



On Sunday 4th October, 17 children from Class PL performed ‘choro’ (Traditional Brazilian songs) at the Flipside festival, held at Snape Maltings. They played instruments, and sang (in Portuguese!), with musicians Clea and Luis.
In these photos you can see instruments being tuned, as the children got ready to perform, and then the actual performance, on the stage in the Big Top at Flipside.
