Superstar DJs from Derry primary schools spin the decks at Féile workshops

Children from local primary schools stepped into a world of DJ decks, animation, music-making and movie magic at Féile’s Creative Days.

Students from St Eugene's PS, Nazareth House PS, Gaelscoil Éadain Mhóir and Long Tower PS took part in four high-energy creative sessions held in schools and community centres, giving many their first experience of cutting-edge music and digital technology.

From mixing tracks and experimenting with DJ equipment to building instruments and creating their own music, young people got the chance to explore creativity in new ways.

Workshops introduced the children to animation and filmmaking using iPads, stop-motion, time-lapse and visual effects apps, with children producing their own animated shorts and superhero-style videos.

Interactive displays, collaborative music sessions and hands-on workshops encouraged movement, imagination and self-expression, while helping build confidence and encouraging team work.

Led by experienced artists and facilitators, the programme opened the door to new creative skills and showed how music, technology and DIY culture can inspire future opportunities for young people.
