EAC Young Musician Competition 2026
Following their success at our school Young Musician Competition last month, Gregor C (S5) and Lucy M (S3) both represented Stewarton Academy at the East Ayrshire Young Musician Competition which took place on Monday 20th April in Stewarton Area Centre.
Lucy sang Maybe This Time in the Junior competition, and although she wasn’t awarded a place, she performed incredibly well and received positive feedback from the adjudicators.

Gregor performed a piece on snare drum and one on marimba in the Senior competition. He also played incredibly well, garnering positive feedback from the adjudicators, and was awarded Runner Up.

Young Musician Competition 2026
We held our annual Young Musician Competition on the evening of Tuesday 31st March and were absolutely blown away with the musical talent of all our young musicians who put themselves forward to compete.
Thanks to our adjudicator, Miss Sarah Skerritt, who had the unenviable task of deciding our winners on the night.
In our Junior competition, for those in S1 – S3, our runner up was Oscar W (S3) who performed Solitaire on flute, and our winner was Lucy M (S3) who sang Maybe This Time.
