It was so uplifting to see so many children enjoying making music together on Wednesday Night. 6 students from MPS strummed up a storm on their ukuleles with over 600 other students from around Canterbury. 

This is the fifth year we have taken part in this event.  Strum, Strike and Blow is an exciting amalgamation of the Christchurch Marimba Festival and Christchurch Uke Fest which features hundreds of students playing marimbas, ukuleles and recorders in the Horncastle Arena. 

The Festival is run by Music Education Canterbury and Christchurch Civic Music Council
