Celebrating Music at Bombolulu School of Promise
Kenya
Earlier this year, staff at Bombolulu School of Promise explored how music could support their teaching and care. The impact has been clear: staff feel more confident and inspired, while children are showing greater engagement, creativity, and self-confidence. We’re delighted to share these outcomes and thoughts on our next steps in our journey together.
