Students travelling to Timor-Leste this year are planning to teach local children to play the recorder and then leave quite a few there with them. If you have a recorder at home in good condition and can donate it please send it to Chris Lloyd in the Library. Alternatively, your family may like to purchase one to be donated. We also welcome any simple recorder music books.
