House Music on Thursday 30 January was, in the words of Headmaster Mark Sturgeon, “simply sensational”.

This year we had 280 students taking part in the event at the magnificent WatersideTheatre and we were delighted to be joined by OA George Moore (Ridley ’05) who was adjudicator for the evening.  George is a pianist, musical director, arranger and more recently has worked as a songwriter and producer with a wide range of artists, including Florence and the Machine, Clean Bandit, Jorja Smith, Paloma Faith and Camila Cabello.

Paterson House kicked off the evening with their rendition of “I’m Still Standing” followed by Phillips and Denson.  After a short interval Ridley House took to the stage performing “Just the Two of Us” followed by Hampden House.  Lee closed out the fantastic evening of performances - congratulations to all the houses and all the students.  Thank you also to Craig Nathan, Glen Dallas and all the staff involved with the production of a most brilliant event.

Our congratulations to Ridley House for winning the event with their performances of “Just the two of us”, “Sunny” and “Spain”.  It was a remarkable showcase for all that is wonderful about our School.
