Winter Concert 2023 - Pictures

Our Music department hosted a superb ‘Winter Concert’ in the last week of term with approximately 70 pupils singing as part of the choir/ensemble and playing a range of instruments – violin, cello, drum kit, steel pans, piano/keyboard, bass, acoustic and electric guitar.

The department has been a melodious cacophony of sounds from the very start to the very end of every academy day!  At the concert, pupils’ character, conscious and courage was on display for our HGAED community, friends and families to see.

A huge thank you to our peripatetic music teachers who are invaluable to the department and academy as a whole. They worked tirelessly with the pupils to get them ready to deliver high quality performances and it was a great pleasure to watch!
