Kate Walsh and Helen Richardson led Hockey workshops for our students
and those from local primaries
A fantastic opportunity for Hockey fans to learn more about the sport from those
who excel at the highest level
Unique partnership
with Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra
St Michael's has secured the services of one of the top orchestral musicians in the UK to work with classes each half term across the age range.
Timothy Jackson is the principal horn player at the internationally-renowned RLPO after a career that includes the London Philharmonia and the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House.
In addition, Mr Jackson is no stranger to 'lighter' music, performing on film sound tracks for
'Harry Potter' and 'Star Wars'.
EA gaming favourites like 'Need for Speed'
and 'Pirates of the Caribbean' feature soundtracks
including Mr Jackson's talents.
He will inspire our young musicians with his playing and help them develop their composition skills, especially at GCSE and A level.
Welcome, Timothy Jackson, to the St Michael's family!
