Fantastic Live Lounge Music for all Ages!
Our first ever Live Lounge ‘Extra’ was hosted at St John’s Church in Caterham. We were honoured to be able not only perform at this beautiful venue, but also to be able to raise money for St John’s Church who regularly provide us with a wonderful, atmospheric venue for all kinds of musical performances.
Session one for First to Third year saw some standout performances, including Finley R (Third Year) kicking of proceedings with his upbeat rendition of KT Tunstall’s ‘Suddenly I See’. Ann T (Third Year) gave a moving performance of ‘Grenade’ by Bruno Mars whilst Aggie P (Second Year) gave an uplifting performance of Anne Marie’s ‘Unhealthy’. Healy D (Third Year) finished the first session with an enigmatic rendition of Sam Smith’s ‘Writing’s on the Wall’. We were also delighted to welcome four pupils in year five and six from St John’s Primary School who all performed brilliantly and confidently. A wonderful start to the afternoon from all our younger pupils.
Session two, for Fourth Year to Sixth Form, featured another set of amazing numbers. Will C (Fourth Year) opened the session with a joyful performance of Bill Withers’ ‘Lovely Day’, with other highlights including Alice K (L6) performing a beautiful version of ‘Vienna’ by Billy Joel, Sami O’D (Fourth Year) with a haunting performance of Chris Cornell’s ‘You Know my Name’ and Ines H-M (Fourth Year) with a stunning performance of Celine Dion’s ‘It’s All Coming Back to Me Now’. A huge congratulations to all our senior pupils – it would take too long to name them all, but every performance was outstanding. Thank you and well done also to Vocalpoint, Close Harmony and Chamber Choir for their uplifting numbers.
And finally, session three for staff and parents was a short but spectacular set from Caterham School’s finest! A huge thank you and congratulations to Mrs Rounds, Mrs Webster, Mr Chris Jones and Mr Terrell for four outstanding, upbeat and enjoyable performances.
A brilliant day for the whole community – congratulations to all who took part.
