King Edward VI School

We have long been impressed by the quality of music teaching that the school offers and we have attended some excellant concerts given by the students. Susan has been a long-standing member of the Ceilidh Band (the Rex Eddies - think about it) and Andrew has joined the orchestra in the second violins. This year the school produced a double CD including a range of musical pieces from the choir, orchestra, jazz band, soloists and ceilidh band. The tracks were recorded at the end of the last school year including groups and soloists from the previous two years. Susan's social diary meant she missed the recording session for the Ceilidh Band (she was in Scotland at the time) which was a bit unfortunate. Anyway, the tracks make excellant listening, and yes - we were there when many of the pieces were recorded.

In 1998 (GCSE year) Susan was awarded two trophies by the school. The first was for Outstanding Project Work in Technology - she built an electronic musical tuning box. The second was a cup in recognition of her work and efforts helping the Youth Assoiciation in it's activities with Bronze and Silver Duke of Edinburgh students.
