Run by:  Mrs Daniels TDaniels@oieaco.uk and Mrs Selby KSelby@oiea.co.uk 

Additional Information:  The musical endeavours of our students won't just happen on one night. With band there will be rehearsals on other nights after school which Mrs Selby will run/ coordinate and communicate out as part of the extra-curricular music offer next year. We felt as part of the altered enrichment time we still wanted to offer our school bands the chance to get together and basically have rehearsal space. This will be led by Mrs Daniels
