Cathedral Primary has always been known for its strong musical tradition, so the suspension of instrumental tuition due to COVID-19 was a particular blow to the school. However, following a significant investment in new trumpets and trombones using the school’s Pupil Equity Fund, instrumental tuition has made a welcome return to Cathedral on an even bigger scale than from before the pandemic.

As can be seen from the photographs, the children were delighted to receive their new instruments last week and Mr Woods, our brass instructor, has expressed how impressed he is with the enthusiasm and commitment of Cathedral pupils. In an email to Mr Young, Mr Woods wrote:

”Thank you for your support (including financial) for our young musicians. Cathedral PS leading the way.”

We look forward to hearing the children perform later in the year.
