Music Success

Well done to  Archie (S3) who picked up a trophy for his trombone playing, as did Oscar (S3) for cornet. They have both played with Dalmellington Brass Academy for some time and this weekend competed in the 81st Dalmellington Brass Band Slow Melody competition.
Oscar took second place in the Advanced Junior Section, with Archie just one point behind in 3rd place. Archie was also awarded the Carr trophy for dedication and commitment, selected by the junior band’s conductor.

Well Done!

Well done to Tristan (S5) who was competing in the All England Open for ballroom dancing at the weekend.
His results were:
  • 4th rising star solo ballroom
  • 4th under 21 solo ballroom
  • 8th adult solo ballroom
He was competing against people from all over Britain and some from Italy. His performance was recorded and will contribute towards his Higher PE.  Well done, Tristan!
