Violin Concert

Our violinists treated us to an inspiring concert yesterday. Opening with all 17 players performing a captivating arrangement of Harry Potter, we then heard small groups and soloists (from Year 2 to Year 6) play an eclectic mix of styles, all attractively presented by Miss Verity. Well done everyone! 🎶
