Last week, John (SYWB MD) was delighted to represent the Wind bands and Southampton & Isle of Wight Music Hub at the Children’s Mayor Celebration event. Held in the Lord Mayor’s parlour, the current Children’s Mayor invited people that have been significant during her Mayoral year. The Wind bands have been thankful for her presence as a VIP at concerts during this last year.
The children’s Mayor gave an inspirational speech, talking of her year and the intended impact. Community action and passing on individuals talents/skills/knowledge to another are here key points. Saying “I can show you how to do that!” in a sharing act of community. Her speech was breathtaking and left young and old in the parlour full of praise for the Children’s Mayor.
The Children’s Mayor spoke of her passion for music (our MD, John just happens to be her Cello teacher too), and the significance in her life.
