Our final informal concert of 2023-2024 took place on Tuesday, and this time it was Year 6's turn to take to the stage for the final time, as their Junior School career draws to its close.

      This was a super showcase in which the girls demonstrated the many music and singing skills which they have learnt and honed over the years - a wonderfully diverse and energetic concert, including instruments from all mainstream orchestral families alongside voice, piano, guitar and the debut of our Year 6 Rock Band.

      For the first time, non-musicians also took an active role in the concert, operating the sound mixing desk, microphones and equipment, and really enjoying the technical challenge with excellent results.

      Many of the Year 6s from this event will return to the stage next week for our annual Vocal Concert on Monday 24 June - watch this space!

      On Thursday mornings, Year 5 spend twenty minutes reading with girls from Nursery and Reception.  This week, we interviewed some of our young friends to ask them what they enjoy about having a 'big sister' Reading Buddy - and this is what they had to say:

"I love reading fun stories with my buddy!"

"I enjoy it because she takes me through it and she even brought me a present."

"She's really funny when she reads!"

"I like it because she's my friend."
