A fantastic effort from the MEP concert and stage bands at the NSW School band festival  – – two bronze awards for the concert bands, who were playing up a grade from last year, and two silvers for the stage bands. Congratulations! MEP director Murray Jackson reports that he was very pleased with everyone’s attitude and commitment on the day and that the quality of the performances just goes to show that if all students adopted a regular practise routine, a great standard could be achieved.
