Codi'r To is a community music project inspired by the world renowned El Sistema programme aimed at improving educational and well-being outcomes for children who face socio-economic challenges. We work with pupils in Ysgol Maesincla, Caernarfon and Ysgol Glancegin, Maesgeirchen, Bangor. Our aim is to provide inspiration and transformation for children, families, schools and communities, changing lives for the better through music. We deliver weekly music sessions to over 500 pupils including after school clubs, samba club, community performances, annual Birthday Concerts, school holiday clubs, take a musician home for tea concerts and opportunities for pupils to enjoy performances by professional musicians and orchestras.
The primary objective of all El Sistema projects is to achieve social change through music. The Codi'r To project challenges deprivation, raising expectations and supporting participants as they learn to believe in their own abilities and recognise their own potential. With regular participation in music from an early age we aim to raise levels of confidence, aspiration, pride and happiness.
