Our Winter Concert 2025, held on Thursday 11th December, was a truly special evening and played to a full house, with an amazing audience of families, friends, and staff filling the venue and creating a warm, festive atmosphere from start to finish.

The concert showcased the exceptional talent, confidence, and creativity of our students. In one vibrant show, performers took to the stage with energy and professionalism, delivering a programme that reflected both their individual abilities and their ability to work together as an ensemble. The standard of performance was outstanding, highlighting not only musical skill but also focus, resilience, and a genuine love for the arts.

Weeks of rehearsals were evident in the polished performances, with students demonstrating excellent stage presence, musicality, and commitment. From powerful group numbers to memorable individual moments, the concert was a clear celebration of the depth of talent across the school and the dedication students bring to their creative work.

We are incredibly grateful to our amazing audience, whose enthusiasm and support helped make the evening so memorable. Your applause, encouragement, and festive spirit meant so much to our performers and contributed greatly to the success of the event.

Mr Creasey's Concert Highlights

"Particular highlights were the year 11 rock band with an incredibly strong debut performance. The brass band/percussion joint item have been working so hard on their piece and  was an excellent performance. The soloists were at a very high standard with all showing what it takes to perform with accuracy and emotion. The choir showed their ability for another strong debut. I could list every performer and every group with the same adjectives, there were so many standouts. I was proud of all of our young musicians and really happy to be able to showcase such talent at HAB."
