Upper School Music Competition

27 Mar 23

We had a really successful house music competition on Tuesday, thanks so much to everyone that took part.

Special thanks to the music prefects Molly, Christina and Tom for organizing their houses' performances (even holding auditions in some cases to select the best entrants).

Only one house was underrepresented, which sadly affected the final results - if you play an instrument or sing and didn't take part this year remember that if you had it would probably have made a big difference to the final scores.

The Year 10 audiences were brilliantly supportive and very appreciative of everything they heard, regardless of the style or type of music.

Thanks also to Mr Gibbons for running sound on the day and the staff who came along to watch.

The final house placings were:

1st KH
2nd (joint) RP and TS
3rd MS

The ensemble awards (Years 10-13) were as follows:
