It was absolutely brilliant, so many staff and kids have been saying how much they loved it.- Harriet Griffiths, Music/Drama Teacher at Highgate PS, Dec 2022
Flamingo Strings came and performed for our Junior School students as an introduction to the schools' String Programme but was engaging for all involved - whether or not they were currently learning an instrument. The students had a great time learning about the elements of music through their performance, and their show really captured all the various sounds and emotions that string instruments can produce. It was an educational yet entertaining performance and was perfectly catered to the students. -Adrian Yeo, Head of Strings at Wesley College, Dec 2022
"Thanks for the great performances yesterday. You were very inspiring for both the little ones thinking about learning a string instrument and our String Orchestra as they get ready to perform at the Junior Orchestra Festival this weekend." -Judith Walpole, Mount Lawley PS, 2022
“We were so thrilled to have the Flamingo Strings perform for a school visit to Government House. Their performance was incredibly engaging, entertaining and educational and both the students and staff had a wonderful experience. Their interactive program was perfectly tailored to the age group and garnered a great deal of audience participation (including from the adults)!”- Mary Carbone, Events & Engagement Officer, Government House, May 2022
"Flamingo Strings came and performed for our Kindergarten class and the children loved it! The performance was age appropriate and held their attention... I would highly recommend Flamingo Strings!"- Spring Road Community Kindergarten, December 2021
"What a fabulous experience, Flamingo String’s gave our Year 2 students, who next term venture into learning the violin or cello as part of our schools String Programme. The content was all linked to the WA Music Curriculum and allowed the students to further their knowledge in a live musical setting. The interest that our students have shown in learning a String instrument is credit to the entertaining, educational performance and it concreted the importance of live music, allowing our students to experience such an incredible show in the comfort of their own Music classroom." -Peter Carnley ACS, 2022
"Flamingo strings were a breath of fresh air, our kids smiling and listening throughout the show. Their vibrant musical selections sparked witty explanations of an array of musical concepts, and simply seeing the performers up close left a lasting impression. We'll book them again."-Lachlan Skipworth and Akiko Miyazawa from Cygnus Arioso, 2020
