My Project

I would like to get kids a block rocker sound system for music during morning activity. We would also use this during lunchtime activities. We would also use this with after school clubs and sports. We even have morning door greeters who would use the music.

Keeping kids active and safe and giving them a little enjoyment with music would be great.

Anytime we can provide a safe fun activity for these kids it is a good thing. Kids who join clubs and activities do way better in school. Help make a difference at our school.
