Date for your diaries…
Last Friday we had our annual Christmas concert which was a sell-out with not even standing room to spare!
The Year 7 Band and ‘Strings & Things’ made their debut, our Steel Pans group wowed the crowd, and Year 8, 9 and 10 bands rocked hard albeit in a festive manner, with Groove Band, Little Big Band and the Rhythm & Brass band all bringing sonorous tones to proceedings.
Student led bands, Space Goose and Purple Elixir brought the house down and the evening was raucously finished by Senior Band featuring members of staff and the wild man of rock, our very own Mr Leverno. A fitting end to a fantastic, festive, fun-filled evening.
A huge thank you to Chaslet Sound (parent to one of our Year 8s) who provided the amazing lights and sound helping to create this spectacular concert.
The dedication and passion of our music department team are not only teachers of music, they provide a place of creativity, respect, opportunities and support for our students. They are one big musical family……we are really very proud of them all (staff and students).
Happy Christmas!
As the academic year flies by, we are met with financial challenges that impact our ability to provide many of the additional enrichment experiences that have always been a vital part of our student’s education. Activities such as school trips, cultural capital days, school clubs and inspiring science events, are no longer as feasible as they once were.
These experiences are not mere luxuries; they are an essential part of our students’ education, fostering growth, inspiration, and a well-rounded learning environment. For many of our boys, particularly our boys who may not have access to these opportunities outside of school, these activities offer exposure to new ideas, perspectives, and skills.
To ensure that we can continue offering these enriching opportunities, we are seeking your help. Your generosity will have a direct impact on the education of both our current and future students, allowing them to benefit from the full spectrum of experiences that help inspire, motivate, and develop well-rounded individuals.
If you are able to donate towards this, please follow this link to our GoFundMe fundraising page: https://gofund.me/0bf74bd8

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference in ensuring that we can provide the educational experiences our students deserve.
Please contact our finance office directly at [email protected] if you would like to discuss other ways to donate or support. Your generosity will directly support enrichment activities, ensuring that every student has access to a full and inspiring education.
Thank you for your continued support and dedication to Enfield Grammar School.
