A Wonderful Day of Music

The music department flung its doors wide open on Sunday to receive musicians from schools across the local area. 15 primary and prep schools were represented including pupils from Oakhyrst, Sandcross, St. John’s, Micklefield, Cumnor House and Banstead Community Junior School.

Together with pupils from Caterham Prep School, the children enjoyed a lively day of music-making culminating in a short concert, featuring the combined forces as a symphony orchestra, performing music from La La Land. Each section of the orchestra performed their own pieces and a masterclass was held with three selected candidates. Parents and children alike were impressed by the expertise and passion of the Caterham music staff, who led energetic and informative workshops throughout the day. A wonderful and rewarding day was enjoyed by all.
