Jesmond Park Academy

On Sunday 20th September, our talented Year 9–12 Steel Band Performance Group had the honour of opening a fundraising event organised by Curvy Sounds at The Old Coal Yard in Heaton. The students performed a varied and challenging repertoire, ranging from Beethoven and Dolly Parton to traditional Caribbean music and ABBA. They played with huge enthusiasm and confidence, thoroughly enjoying the opportunity to perform alongside a fantastic line-up of local musicians, including Emma Doenge, Nev Clay, Scot Hepple, Uberloon and an acoustic set from Maxïmo Park. The event raised funds for the Northumberland Wildlife Trust's Rothbury Estate Appeal, including a raffle for a bespoke guitar made by event organisers Jess and Andrew Mills. There were also local artists, plant and food stalls, with proceeds supporting the appeal and together with the event have raised £7000.
