A truly beautiful service for a wonderful friend & teacher. Mrs Drew was a student at SMW (before we were SMW), taught many of our students at the start of their musical journey, covered instrumental lessons in recent years & was an inspiration to us all 🎻
12 of our amazing musicians took part in the annual recorder festival at the Victoria Hall alongside 800 other students. They were positive role models for our collegiate primary schools and for all! A huge well done from Mrs Smith and Miss Hayes @StMargaretWard@StokeCMS
