Winston's Primary Orchestra
On Wednesday 18th June the Performance Space saw a performance from the Winston Primary Orchestra. This ensemble, made up of over 40 primary students and supported by our own Winston student 'music mentors', met weekly throughout May and June to prepare three pieces of music.
The concert, performed to a packed audience of friends and family, showcased the hard work and dedication that all of the students involved have shown. For some of the primary students this was the first time they had been part of a large ensemble whilst others have attended our previous primary orchestra in the Autumn Term. The final performances of 'Castle On The Hill', 'Kids In America' and 'Just Can't Get Enough' were fantastic and enjoyed by all.
A huge thank must go to our own 'music mentors' who are all Winston students in Years 8, 9 and 10. Their patience, kindness and support allowed all of the primary students to successfully tackle the music and produce the excellent performance that they did.
We are looking forward to running the Primary Orchestra again in the Autumn Term!
