On Tuesday 5th December, Tytherington School held its annual Christmas Concert at St Michael’s Church. Nearly 100 students from across the school took part in a range of musical performances. The audience was treated to a wide variety of solo and choral pieces. There was a great blend of traditional carol songs such as “Once in Royal David’s City” to more modern pieces from the funky Steel Drum Band.

The concert provided Tytherington School with the opportunity to showcase the full range of musical talent and groups. There were excellent solo singing performances from Xabier Wilson, Molly Jarratt and Effie Millar. There was also a debut performance from Mr Beecher’s newly formed Drum Group who played “Jungle Bells”. The audience were also treated to performances from the school’s Brass, Flute, Clarinet, Jazz and String Groups. The Senior Choir were also in great voice as they performed ” California Dreamin’ and “Psalm 23”. Perhaps the highlight of the evening was the Concert Band’s performance of “Pirates of the Caribbean”. Rosie Ogden also returned from Keele University to play in the Steel Band and perform with the Senior Choir. This was her 10th consecutive year performing at the concert! Rosie first performed at the concert as a student at Marlbroough Primary School.

Headteacher Manny Botwe said, “I’m delighted to lead a school where so many young people regularly play music. It was great to see students across several age groups interacting so well with each other.”
