All 3 of our Pipe Band’s took part in the Scottish School’s Pipe Band Championships on Sunday 9 March in Kilmarnock. The event attracted school bands from all over Scotland and featured over 92 performances, including 17 performances in the Freestyle category which is unique to the Scottish School’s Championships were Pipe Bands are encouraged to collaborate with other musicians and entertain the audience with something a little bit different. This year our entry came 5th out of the 17 entries with a medley of tunes from the movie Top Gun.
The Pipe Band would like to thank Mr Bishop for all his hard work in putting this together plus the other musicians from the school that volunteered to get out of bed at 5am to come along to the Championships.
Our Novice B Band made their Championships debut and delivered a hugely improved performance on the week before at George Watson’s.
