What a night! 🎸πŸ”₯

Huge pride for the incredible Bedford High School rock bands who absolutely smashed it at the Battle of the Bands at Leigh Library this weekend! The talent, energy and confidence on that stage was unreal β€” the future of live music is looking seriously bright. 🎢✨

A special shoutout as well to the guest judges, the famous Lottery Winners, who brought their support, encouragement and star power to the event. It meant so much for our young musicians to perform in front of artists who’ve made it big while staying true to their roots.

Huge thanks go to our fantastic music department, in particular Mr Morley and Mr Jenkins for all their hard work making sure our bands were ready to shine on stage. Thanks also go to our fantastic parents and carers for your support. 

Moments like this show just how much talent, creativity and passion we have in our local community. So proud of every student who got up there and gave it their all β€” you were AMAZING! πŸ‘πŸŽ€
