5th July 2018

So for the last time this academic year we gathered in the hall with that end of term feeling, with our last concert on the 14th July at 1.30pm St Edmunds. 

When we return in September we will be having our 10th birthday celebration just ahead of the right royal 28th. 

Today’s warm up for old times sake was our Forever Motown one of our medleys. Just for fun. And after fluffing our way through that Ed slipped behind the piano for a crack at Dona Nobis Pacem which he quickly ran through before splitting up choir into three parts. 

This Is Me came with a brand new backing track and a HUGE hiss. The backing track is part of a medley, such potential fun. Ed declared it ‘over ready’ then sat at the piano to iron out the little creases. We were told to hold our Aaaaaah not our sssssssss. We stood to perform. Ed also reminded us to hold onto our parts. 

And Jacks choice next, the quirky little number that is Life On Mars but only once our choir master’s hands were ready. Then we had a snack break followed by a rousing Viva La Vida, another notice, and a mystery medley after some jokes and thanks from Ed. A HUUUUGE round of applause for Jack. 

In a very clever and honourable link announced his love of The Sound Of Music. We dived in, with Pringles Brownies and booze. Some of my favourite things ...

Well done DFS have a great summer, we all love you XXX
