On Wednesday, the 10th of December, some students from Stratford College performed at the Orwell House Nursing Home. This was part of our Mitzvah Week programme which is dedicated to giving back to our community and encouraging kindness.

We had performances from the band, Tam on the clarinet, Hao Wen on the violin, Howard and Sophia on the piano, guitarist Conall and Reuben, and singers Frans, Hayley, Talma and Lucy, accompanied on piano by Mr Barrett. In the audience was a past Principal of Stratford College, Colette O'Broin who we had the pleasure of meeting after our performance. We hope that the residents enjoyed the concert as much as we enjoyed performing.
