Raising the Roof with Schools' Music Festival

Talented singers from our school have been among hundreds of students taking part in a huge music festival across five different venues.

The annual event had more than 600 participants and our choir was part of a group which sang at our school and gave a great performance.

The singing was spectacular and all the children gave their very best on the day. A huge amount of effort has gone into this year’s festival and the choirs and the staff working with them have pulled out all the stops to make it successful.

Hours of rehearsal and dedication came to fruition at the event when our choir took to the stage and gave a fantastic performance for the audience and the other singers waiting to take their turn.

The GLF academy music festival raised the roof with outstanding singing and 26 schools were represented by their choirs - with singers ranging in age from Year 1 to six-formers in Year 13.

A special mention goes to Hazel Cornish, a year 10 student of Rosebery School, whose song ‘Outspoken’ was chosen to be sung by the massed choirs as a special finale to the shows.

The festival hosts this year were Aureus School, Didcot; Cordwalles School, Camberley; Glyn School, Epsom; Forge Wood School, Crawley and Whyteleafe School.
