Discovery Day
(Year 7 entry 2026 only)
Thursday 5 June 2025
Nearly 140 pupils took part in this year's outstanding Lent Term Concert.
Held in the beautiful and inspiring environment of Llandaff Cathedral, pupils demonstrated exceptionally high standards of musical achievement throughout, impressing the audience with an ambitious and meticulously prepared programme of ensemble and choral repertoire. The excellent performance standards clearly reflected the outstanding dedication of our pupil musicians and Music Department. How wonderful to be able to work together in this way to achieve such high-quality musical experiences of almost professional quality.
