Something we're all too aware of here at NORCA.

Music has always been part of my life. From an early age, I can remember my big sister blaring out the Top 40 from her transistor radio.

🎵 Preparations are well on the way for Sistema's Summer Concert, and last week our Senior Leadership Team made a visit to our friends at The Halls to scope out the venue ahead of our return there on 2 July. All three of our ensembles will be taking the stage in what promises to be an exciting programme, not to mention a wonderful experience for our students, as a culmination to a year of hard work.
