EXTRACURRICULAR MUSIC

A wide variety of Enrichment Activities

We work closely with Camp Hill Girls’ School next door, and our large orchestras, bands and ensembles are organised jointly with them. The main orchestras and bands are directed by the Heads of Music and training groups are conducted by instrumental teachers. Our instrumental teachers are experts in directing a wide variety of smaller ensembles.

Three Orchestras And Three Bands Rehearse Each Week, As Well As Many Choirs And Other Chamber Ensembles. These Are Some Of The Groups Meeting This Academic Year
