Happy New Year to all students/parents/families involved with music at UVHS. I hope you all had a good Christmas and are well set for 2016.
A huge ‘thank you’ to everyone who performed and held buckets at Booths on 19th December – we raised £875 in the buckets during the 6.5 hours of performing – a fantastic effort on everybody’s part.
On Monday 22nd, the Chamber Choir and Sax Ensemble gave a fantastic afternoon concert at St Marys Hospice, and we handed over not only 100 mince pies and 4 bottles of sherry (kindly donated by Mr Miller and the Harrrell Lane Co-Op), but also the £536 raised in the collection following the Christmas Festival – which I hope everyone enjoyed.
Finally – the next Friends meeting will be on Tuesday 12th January at 6.30pm in the Meeting Room in A Block (old staffroom). All are welcome to attend, with the main agenda item being the Marines concert in May – tickets will go on sale in February and there will be a ‘pre-sale day’ for parents to buy them.
Many thanks for all the support given in 2015 and here’s to a successful 2016.
