Spring Term Concert

It was great to see so many of the Hall boys involved in the Music Department's Spring Term Concert. It was a fantastic evening and the performances were beautiful. Below are a small selection of photographs which show some of our very talented musicians.

Bath Half

Well done to all of our staff and students who completed the Bath Half 2017.  The conditions were great and all of our runners completed the course in under 2 hours 20 minutes which is a great achievement.  Special mention must go to Mr Smith who got round in 1 hour 21  minutes!  A massive thank you to everyone who has donated to our chosen charity Hemihelp via the Just Giving page.  So far we have over £1400!  THANK YOU.


For the record, this year's runners  were (in no particular order!) Mr Smith, Louis, Rory, Charlie, James, Mr Harding, Hugo, and John. TOP WORK GENTS!

Weekend Activities

Several of the boys took the opportunity to go trampolining this weekend before a bit of shopping at the Swindon Great Western factory Outlet.  Thanks to Mr Chua for organising what looked like a great fun trip.

House Hockey

This weekend both the seniors and year 9 boys played in House Hockey.  The seniors competed well but were narrowly edged out 2 -1 by Upper and 1- 0 by eventual winners, Middle.  Well done to the Middle men.
In the year 9 competition we went in as underdogs but a 1-0 win against Upper followed by a last minute goal against Middle to seal a 1-0 win against them too meant we were crowned champions at this age group.  Well done to all who took part and good luck to the year 10 students tomorrow.

Friday's lunchtime concert

On Friday, it was Easton's turn to entertain and he played the cello beautifully with Freya.  Their rendition of Scarborough Fayre was very moving.

Lunchtime concerts

There are regular lunchtime concerts held by the Music Department throughout the year which showcase the fantastic talent we have at Kingswood.  It was great to see that Dominic in year 11 took part in one of these concerts at lunchtime today playing the flute.
