Music News- Week 18
Music Eisteddfod
Congratulations to all students who performed in the recent Music Eisteddfod! Our independent adjudicators made special note of how confident, well-presented and well-prepared students were, on the day, and we thank all staff, students and families for the success of the event.
Several students have been nominated for Special Mention awards in the Eisteddfod, as well as Outstanding Performers. These students will receive medals and trophies for their performances of particular merit – though we congratulate all performers for the high standard of musicianship on display, during the two days of the Eisteddfod. Secondary students will receive their awards at the Music Eisteddfod Winners’ Concert, while Primary students will have their awards presented at an upcoming assembly.
