Summer Concert

The Summer Concert provided a platform for a wide variety of music played by pupils of all ages. A large audience enjoyed an evening of solo and ensemble pieces and really got behind the swing and soul bands. The Girls' Choir once again delighted with work both humorous and spiritual.

This final school concert of the academic year revealed the tremendous strides made by the Music Department under the leadership of Julian Ross and we all left looking forward to what the new school year will bring.
