St Mary Magdelene hosted a coffee & music lunchtime for the local community……our very own Groove Band went along to entertain with Mr Ness and Mr Escott – there was definitely the sound of music coming from the church!
A little sound bite…:

It is with great regret that the Key Stage 3 Concert due to take place on 25th February has been cancelled.
The Concert takes place to showcase the talents of Years 7 – 9 and especially to give all the Year 7 students the opportunity to sing together in a mass choir. Because of the Covid restrictions in place until very recently, it has not been possible to run singing rehearsals in our Year 7 classes and so preparation for this Concert could not take place. We are very sorry for the disappointment this will cause both our students and you.
However, the Year 7, Year 8 and Year 9 bands will have an opportunity to perform in the Battle of the Bands which is fixed for Friday 25th March. Any students who were hoping to perform solos or duets in the Key Stage 3 Concert should come and see me with a view to performing in either the Jazz and Acoustic Evening or at the Summer Music Soiree.
If any Year 7 student would like to sing in school, they are most welcome to join our Choir which rehearses every Wednesday lunchtime in Room C1 under Miss Paula Thompson. Individual singing lessons with Miss Thompson are also available (£145 per term).
Once again, my apologies for the cancellation of this event. We are very much hoping that this will be the last event we will have to cancel because of Covid restrictions.
If you have any queries or this or any other forthcoming music event, please do not hesitate to email me or ring on the number below.
With many thanks,
Ms Cathy Penfold
Music Secretary

A little reminder of the festive Christmas Concert we were able to hold just before restrictions started tightening up again.
It was wonderful to see so many of you there enjoying and celebrating the boys performing for the first time in a long while.
The EGS Music Department wishes you all a very happy and healthy Christmas break.

A group of our brass, woodwind and other players will be performing Christmas Carols in Enfield Town tomorrow, 7th December from 2.30 – 4.00pm (outside Costa in Palace Gardens Exchange shopping centre). This has been an annual event for many years (until last year) and this year we are raising money for Love is Kind (a domestic violence charity) and Shelter. If you happen to be free during that time or in Enfield after school, it would be lovely if you could pop along and say hello.
All those who are taking part in playing Christmas Carols this afternoon in Enfield Town are to meet in the Main Hall at Upper School at 2pm.
Any Year 7 and Year 8 coming from Lower School, please meet Mrs Penfold in the Music Office at 13.50pm to walk to Upper.
You will then all walk over to Enfield Town together with the music staff
