Hi everyone!

It has been a busy few weeks at the school in all departments and our staff has noticed a great deal of exhaustion. Kudos to you!

Thank you to students who participated in this years Tuba Christmas down in Market Square. It was a record turn out for players at 113 musicians! It is a unique experience to be surrounded by so many low brass and I hope you had fun!
