Tuesday 26th January was our return to practicing, albeit online. It was great to see so many of you there and we are looking forward to providing you all with tuition on your instruments so that when we can go out and perform again, we will be ready!

It was great to hear that everyone is excited about getting back to banding and being part of the “Band Team” with all of their friends.
