RHYTHM Time South Lakes and Furness has celebrated 20 years of providing pre-school music classes in the area.

The business has now been running for so long that a former Rhythm Time student is now bringing their own child to the classes.

Each course is written by a music teacher and aligns with the Early Years Foundation Stage to provide age-appropriate content. Marion Johnston has been running the classes since 2002.
