We are the Champions of the Stratford and East London Music Festival!

Every year in February, the Stratford and East London Music Festival takes place.This is the oldest UK’s music festival and many musicians and actors can trace the start of their careers from success at the Stratford & East London Music Festival.

Following last years success, this year our school entered the competition in five different categories and we won in three. Mead Singers won in Junior Choir Religious Songs Class; Year 3 Recorder Group won in Wider Opportunity Class and Amelia Christie,who represented Mead in solo singing, won in Popular Songs Class. 

Although the competition was really strong as we had to compete with many school across East London (some of them private), we managed to stay on top of the game. We are extremely proud of our children and their unbelievable achievement. Mrs Kumszczynska, who worked with our pupils said, ‘’We have practised incredibly hard for the last few months and once again we have proved that with a hard work and resilience anything is possible.’’ 

Well done to other solo singers: Kian Muwenda-Simbwa, Marley Calvey and Aimee Ince who also took part in the festival. They came second and were awarded Commended which is a fantastic result.
