Yateley's Rememberance Sunday Ceremony

One of our talented Year 11 trumpet players, Finn Bradley, attended the Yateley Remembrance Sunday ceremony, performing 'The Last post' and 'Ravielle' to mark the 100th Remembrance Service. It is a proud moment for Yateley School to see Finn play at such an important service and the spectators were clearly moved by the performance.

Finn is currently preparing for his GCSE exams, including music and is also getting ready to take his grade 8 trumpet and grade 5 theory. He is also a member of the Junior Royal Academy of Music and is soon to perform at Ronnie Scott's in Soho. 

Gamelan Workshop in the Music Department

Yateley School students were taken through a variety of Gamelan techniques and had a chance to try several instruments too.

Here is an example of gamelan music being played...
