HESKETH HOUSE NEWSLETTER 9 FEBRUARY 2024
A note from the Head… Our Music Festival has been a real highlight this week, with so many girls taking part. I thoroughly enjoyed all the performances, from our youngest girls just setting out on their musical journeys, to the older and more experienced musicians who are really starting to develop their skills.
Hesketh House Music Festival Monday 5 February Our pianists took to the stage on the opening day of our Music Festival, with some excellent performances in all classes. Our adjudicator, Mr Marc Murray, was impressed with both the standard of playing and the confidence of the girls. Well done to everyone who took part!

The final session was probably my favourite, with all of the ensembles – there is something very special about coming together as a group to perform. Well done to everyone who took part and thank you to those parents who were able to join us.

新年快乐

Tuesday’s Music Festival saw girls playing a range of instruments, in another wonderful day of music. Mr Philip Dewhurst was the adjudicator for these sessions and really enjoyed all of the performances, giving some very positive and useful feedback. Again, congratulations to all of our talented musicians!
