Introducing COGmas 2024

'Now that's what I call COGmas'

Our theme for COGmas 2024 has been inspired by lots of last year’s musical & performance style entries. The theme Now that’s what I call COGmas will provide lots of ideas and activities around the expressive arts over weeks 1 & 2, and if you like you can finish off with a special COGmas performance or sharing event in week 3.
