Mrs Soulsby, Director of Music, would like to draw your attention to this year’s Young Songwriter Competition, run by Song Academy. It’s an excellent opportunity for any student aged 8 – 18 looking to share their music and provides a supportive network for all budding songwriters. There is a small admin cost of £10 for each entry, but the prizes and opportunities to be gained far outweigh this. Many well-renowned artists are involved with the competition and you can find out more details by clicking on this link
Song Academy also offers online songwriting workshops during school holidays and there are some coming up during half-term. Click here to find out more information
