A fabulous trip to Belgium where the boys were absolutely amazing. Concerts in Bruges, Ostend, Ypres and plenty of beach football….they have all made some special memories together…and that includes Ms Green, Mr Escott, Mr Tate-Lovery & Mr Leverno!
Now to start planning for next year 🙂
Delighted to say that our wonderful music department and students safely arrived in beautiful beautiful Ostend, Belgium!
The boys have been fantastic and are having a great time; football on the beach, sightseeing and shopping in Ghent and 2 gigs now played; one was in Ypres Market Square and it sounds like it went brilliantly!
EGS Music Tour 2024 has officially started!!!
On Friday, we celebrated the near end of the school year with our fabulous Summer Soiree! The boys were truly fantastic, performing an array of 70s classics.
We are so proud of how far they have all come over the past year and can’t wait to see what next year brings!
The music department are off to Belgium this week to round off the year with the European Music Tour!
Over the last 2 weeks, the Year 7 Band have travelled to St Andrew’s Primary School and Raglan Primary School to perform in assemblies.
They got to show off their talent through performing 3 of their hits they have been learning over the past year, and to inspire the Primary students to pick up an instrument!
We hope to motivate lots of them to choose EGS as their secondary school and for them to become key members of our music department, much like our awesome Year 7 Band!
On Friday 28 June, we invited Year 5 students from 5 different local Primary Schools to join us for a Music and Sport Activity Day. It gave Year 5 students who are now considering which secondary school they would like to attend, an opportunity to see the school in action and take part in some brilliant music and sporting activities.
The day was a great success! We saw lots of budding potential and hope to see lots of their faces again in September 2026.
Join us for the last concert of the year and join in the fun…..put Friday 12 July in your diary – tickets now available on ParentPay.
What a night! We ended last term with a musical extravaganza….
Our Latin Night was a huge success! Super proud of all the performers. Seeing them progress more and more at each concert is a real treat. Shout out to the drumming club who made their debut and absolutely smashed it! Great atmosphere – thank you to all who came.
Now on to rehearse for our final concert of the year……. The Music Soiree: Back to the 70s…… on 14 July.
Sounds of the bands rehearsing can be heard around upper school!
Looking forward to the concert tonight – remember FEGS will be running their usual bar with the addition of ‘drink of the night…Cuba Libre!’
A roundup of what’s been going on in school over the past few weeks…
