Calderwood Glee Team

We are delighted to share the fantastic news that our Stag Squad choir were crowned winners at last night’s Frisson Foundation Glee Challenge. Their victory means they will now advance to the next stage, competing in the regional final at the Usher Hall in May.
Their performance was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment they stepped on stage, their energy, confidence, and joy were unmistakable. The Stag Squad have dedicated themselves wholeheartedly over the past five months, and we could not be prouder of everything they have achieved. The judges praised their “polished and professional” performance, and they truly looked and sounded exceptional.
This achievement is a testament not only to their talent, but to their teamwork, resilience, and passion. We can’t wait to cheer them on as they take to the stage in the regional final. Go Stag Squad!
