Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Thank you to everyone involved in making Harp Academy happen in 2025! Parents and carers at home, staff colleagues at School, and of course all our wonderful harmonauts who turn up each week to make amazing music.

In a fitting end to the year, this week saw forty of our harmonauts and their grown ups gather at the Royal Alex Children’s Hospital to share their music with children who will remain in critical care throughout the festive season; our love and best wishes go out to each and every one of them and their families.

A huge well done to all our players who represented eight different Primary Schools from Saltdean and Brighton to Hove, Portslade and Shoreham. And well done to all our grown ups who set the time aside to travel to the Royal Alex and show their support. Here’s a message of thanks from the Royal Alex team who helped us put everything together:

Hi Everyone, Thank you all so much for your visit this morning. The children were fantastic! Everyone was so happy and loved hearing the lovely music. Please pass on our thanks to the children and families for their time and the brilliant music. Wishing you all a very happy Christmas!! Best wishes, Katy and the Play Team.

We couldn’t be prouder of you all! We look forward to more music making next term and to our next Blow Out adventure. In the meantime we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2026!
