Last summer 250 young musicians enjoyed being back to school this summer, when they attended the Music Services Annual Summer School 2009. The corridors of Portadown College and Bann House were alive with the ‘sound of Music’ with the enthusiastic pupils enjoying well established activities including Junior Wind Band, String Orchestra’s, Big Band, Choir, recorder and harp ensembles, traditional workshops, guitar classes and Percussion workshops.
This year saw the introduction of new options for Musical Pathways for Strings and Wind and also a new “Advanced Performance” option for senior students. An enjoyable break from their musical studies was provided by Ice Breaker sessions and games, providing all students with the opportunity to forge new friendships and adding to the fun and enjoyment.
