Coalburn and Leadhills Band kids have a Les-son to remember

OVER 30 children joined Coalburn Silver Band as their members welcomed the world renowned tuba star Les Neish to Woodpark Primary School for a brass workshop.

The children, predominately from Coalburn Bronze Band, were joined by members of the Leadhills Silver Band as Les lead them in a day of fun, games and teaching.

The day kicked off with Les leading the children in a series of warm-ups, both on and off the instruments.
