Sports Day
The school sports day took place on Thursday June 5. It was an absolutely beautiful day which added to the enjoyment of this spectacular event. We had a huge range of events ranging from the shot putt to the long jump, to the 100 metres, to the high jump, to the 400 metres and the relay.
The timetable was suspended so everyone was able to cheer on their respective Houses. The competitors far exceeded expectations and performed to an exceptionally high standard in all events. The athletes sprinted their way around the track, even in the longer distances and left us all astounded with their prowess.
A huge number of staff and all the pupils who wee not competing thoroughly enjoyed their afternoon. Many thanks to the PE department for organising such a successful afternoon!
Music
Once again this year the young people of Abronhill High School are performing for the local community in our Summer Concert. The concert, as many of you have previously experienced, is a very popular event that showcases the excellent array of talent across all year groups. Last year was a complete sell-out.
This year the concert takes place on Wednesday June 19 from 7pm to 9pm. Tickets are priced at £3 for adults and £2 for children and senior citizens. They are available now to buy from the Business and Information Faculty or from Leontia McLaughlin, our partnership officer.
In addition, you may wish to know that over the past few months our musicians have been working hard on developing an album. This work has now come to fruition in the form of an 18-track CD entitled ‘Legacy’.
It is an excellent listen and features some original work written by our students as well as some very popular covers. It is now available at a cost of £8 from the music department.
Miscellaneous
Mitchell Taylor received a certificate from Modern Languages for his excellent work - well done.
The S2 boys attended a Sevens rugby tournament on June 6 which really captured their interest. They

    However their biggest concert is coming up on December 13th, called Crazy For Christmas. It’s not a Christmas concert really, but it’s more of a holiday concert, although they don’t play any Christmas music, it’s all mostly their new songs and some of their old songs. The concert is being held at Regency Ballroom in San Francisco. The concert isn’t by seats it’s a first come first serve sort of thing. Regular tickets add up to about 36 dollars. However they also had VIP tickets, and only 5 platinum tickets. The VIP was also very limited because they were sold out in the first 10 minutes. There are still regular tickets available but they are almost sold out. Kalin, Myles and Jake also have another close friend Tyler Garcia, or Ty. He is the one who shoots them and all of their music videos and is really close with them. Everyone…

    Most things usually do not stand out to any ordinary person attending a choir performance, but a person who knows about music, they were astonished and a bit of a critic. “They were a bit of pitch sometimes. Treble Choir was a bit distracted. There was one girl at the edge that kept on moving and fiddling too much and kept me distracted. Concert choir was a bit too stiff as for their performance, but other than that, they were pretty good. Vocal Ensemble was an overall amazing performance. I’m very proud of my wife, Suzanne” Jeff Brookey. As for I, it was an amazing performance. This performance was a free show and I recommend for people from the community to come and support their students talents.…

    Upon entering the Valley Performing Art Center, I was greeted by an usher that was handing out programs. The auditorium had large curved pieces of wood on the roof for better acoustics. On the stage was a large backdrop with numerous amounts of different colored lights shining on it. The stage was oriented in such a way where each musician could be seen. The band consisted of a piano, vibraphone, guitar, bass, drums, and an ensemble of saxophones, trumpets, trombones, flutes, and clarinets. The audience sat in seats in front of the band on the first floor and I was seated near the front. The show started with the John Daversa giving an introduction of the show and the special guests. Throughout the concert, special musicians got to come to the front and play solos into a microphone.…

These artist write songs and videos for our entertainment based on what’s hot in the world right now. An artist’s identity is very different from the music they portray to the world.…
