Thursday 29th June
The annual Whickham School band Concert took place last Thursday at St Mary’s Church in Whickham. An uplifting programme of music was performed to an appreciative audience.
The Gateshead String Quartet supported the band and farewells were said to those year 13 students leaving the band to pursue higher education.
The band also paid thanks to Peter Bell, our peripatetic brass specialist who was retiring after 15 years of excellent service.
We would like to pay special thanks to St Mary’s Church for their support.
