In February, the Junior Department had their round of the Inter-House Music Competition. We began by singing the house hymn, ‘All Things Bright and Beautiful’. The second round was the solo round. Harvey Jones began by playing a violin piece called “Chinese Lanterns”. Eventually it was our turn to perform and Tilly and I sang ‘I’m yours’ by Jason Maraz. We stood up and walked to the piano. I started playing and Tilly joined in. Tilly also sang ‘Run’ by Leona Lewis. She was amazing. The third round was for the Houses to sing ‘Morningtown Ride’.
I was the last to sing and I was so nervous when it got to my turn. I was relieved when I had finished but very happy that I had done it. Our final song was ‘Rockin, Rollin’, Ridin’’. The results were very close after the Junior round but Dove were first, then Weaver and then Needwood. It was really exciting!
