A Night of Festive Brilliance:

Cowbridge School Christmas Concert

The Main Hall of Cowbridge School was, once again, alive with the sound of music on Wednesday night this week as we celebrated the festive season with our hugely successful Middle, Senior and Sixth Form Christmas Concert. The evening is a true highlight of the school calendar, showcasing the incredible musical talent and dedication of our pupils.

This year, we were delighted by the significant number of pupils who participated, from the youngest in the Middle School to our experienced Sixth Formers. The stage was filled with enthusiastic performers who delivered a lovely mix of instrumental and voice pieces, ranging from traditional carols to contemporary festive classics. The variety and quality of the performances truly demonstrated the vibrancy of the Music Department and the commitment of our pupils.

While the evening was filled with joy, it was also a poignant event as we marked the final Cowbridge School Christmas Concert for a truly exceptional member of our music community, Mr. Tom Hutchinson, CAVMS Brass Tutor. Mr. Hutchinson has been an integral part of the school's musical life for many years, inspiring countless pupils to pick up and excel on brass instruments. His remarkable success as a Brass Tutor stems not just from his deep passion for music but from the wonderfully enthusiastic, encouraging, and patient manner he brings to every lesson. This approach has consistently motivated pupils to achieve their very best, fostering a love for music that will stay with them long after they leave our school. We presented him with a token of our appreciation and watched as he took to the stage for his final performance with our students—a truly memorable moment. Mr. Hutchinson will be sorely missed by pupils, staff, and parents alike. We extend our deepest gratitude for his dedication and wish him the very best of luck in his new and exciting role in the North of England.
