What a remarkable weekend we had! Well done to all the kids who attended the Music Intensive – you worked hard and trained hard, and by all reports were also respectful, polite and helpful. The family concert at the end showed what a vast improvement was made. All the groups sounded fantastic – well done!

 

Thank you to Mr Mansukhani and Mr Walmsely for their extra time and attention, thank you to the tutors who came in just for the weekend, the parents who helped volunteer, and Nicole Shinfield for a meticulous organisational feat.
