We are delighted that the work done by our Rye Wurlitzer Academy (RWA) within the Rye Academy Trust has recently been recognised and supported by the Rye Fund. RWA Founder, Richard Moore, was presented with a certificate at the fund’s annual awards evening at Rye Town Hall and the RWA are receiving £500 from the fund, which supports our ongoing programme of encouraging students from Rye College to learn the historic, complex and fun art of making music on our heritage 1925 Wurlitzer Theatre Pipe Organ. The Rye Fund’s motto of, ‘Protecting Our Past – Enabling Our Future’ very much ties in with our aims in the RWA and we look forward to many more of our students enjoying these very special music lessons.
