A gorgeous setting and some simply stunning performances.

This year’s Montgomery Singing Final was held in Waterloo Hall on Friday 3rd May. As ever, there were some superb performances, with singers from across the year groups and songs from a range of genres. Congratulations to this year’s winner, Hayley C and to runners-up Amelia H, Charlotte D-C and Hugo W.

We were delighted to welcome British singer, composer and choral leader, Joanna Forbes L’Estrange, back to Wellington to adjudicate the competition. Joanna gave extremely thoughtful and personalised feedback to the performers and later tweeted: “I had a wonderful evening judging the Montgomery singing competition… A gorgeous setting and some simply stunning performances”.

Finalists: Hayley C, Sebastian C, Charlotte D-C, Oscar F, Amelia H, Jemima H, Alice N, Mathilda N, Will R, Millie S, Baxter W and Hugo W.
