Our Senior School Summer Concert was the last opportunity for our students to perform before departing on tour to the Rhine Valley in Germany. The tour destination set the theme for refreshments served on the lawn as guests arrived and again in the interval.
The concert was also the last time that we will see our Year 13 students on stage, which made brother and sister duet between Oliver (Year 13) and Harriet (Year 10) even more poignant. It was however reassuring to see more musical families emerge, with Henry (Year 7) and Eve (Year 9) both performing solo parts in the choir’s much-loved A Million Dreams.
Congratulations to all students and staff involved in delivering such a fantastic event. Particularly to Louis and Miranda (Year 11) for bringing flair and sophistication to their roles as hosts.
