Walton High Success

Walton High entered students into the Milton Keynes Festival of the Arts 2021 that was held online in March. Once again Walton High was at the forefront of entries from across Milton Keynes.

George Lashbrook received first place in the Keyboard class performing I’m Still Standing by Elton John. Theo Salifu excelled in the Preparatory Popular piano, earning first place for his performance of Ed Sheeran’s Thinking Out Loud. Meanwhile a string performer for the future, Jayden Laplante won the Preparatory Strings category playing Takin’ it Easy  on the violin.

Other notable performances were by Anna Wilson ( Electric Guitar) Olivia Sparrow (keyboard) Yasir Lawal (trombone) and Emily Cunningham (with a vocal performance of I’m Almost There from The Princess and the Frog).

Congratulations to all the performers and teachers, we are very proud of you all.
