Abingdon News No. 66

Service of thanksgiving On 19 March, members of the choir were joined by the Prep School choir, parents and key members of Foundation staff in the School Chapel for a dedicated service of thanksgiving to mark 25 years of the coming together of the two schools. Officiated by the Reverend Dr Steer, there were rousing hymns, readings from pupils of both schools and an address on how to be thankful by Mr Windsor. It was a beautiful service. House ensemble competition This new initiative saw a small ensemble of musicians from each house play a musical item to their peers towards the end of term. Mr Stafford had the unenviable task of adjudicating the astounding range of music, proclaiming Pygott’s the winners! Pro Corda Congratulations to The Claritones who qualified for the final round of the Pro Corda national chamber competition in London. Complimented for their choice of repertoire, they demonstrated an amazing standard of play, impeccable behaviour and a professional attitude from start to finish. Music Abingdon 15 abingdon.org.uk
