Second place went to Dan McArthur, who performed a beat box of his own design and also won the student vote.

The event, which took place at the Spa Centre, was watched by the entire school with entrants being judges by a panel including Barbara Dunne, who has 25 years experience in the music industry.

Mark Feldman, head teacher said: ‘It was a fantastic day with some very moving performances.

“Getting up on any stage is intimidating but particularly in a professional theatre and I was very proud of the students for overcoming their nerves and performing so brilliantly.”
