On Tuesday 11th June, we welcomed family and friends of the Foundation to the Christian Science Church for a concert to celebrate some of the wonderful violin students we have within school who learn using the Suzuki system.

Organised by our Suzuki violin teacher Ms Goddard, the event involved many of her students from Years 3-12. The programme allowed each pupil to perform a solo as well as including a couple of group items. The concert started with all of our Junior pupils performing a number of pieces together and it culminated with almost all the students giving a sparkling performance of Double Dazzle.

We enjoyed performances by:
