The standard of competition was high, with ten Independent School choirs taking part. The adjudicator commented on the KGS pupils’ beautiful sound, annunciation, musicality and communication in their performance of both songs - Kokeoko and Somewhere Only We Know. Kirkham Grammar Junior, Infant and Pre-School music teacher, Ms Boylan, reported after the event: “I am incredibly proud of the Singing Ensemble; I was particularly taken by how gracious the KGS pupils were on hearing the news of their success, and how supportive they were towards the pupils from the other choirs that competed. They were fantastic ambassadors on the day, they demonstrated incredible talent and were a credit to Kirkham Grammar School.” ![](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/images/news/IMG_0543(1).jpg) **Tags:** [infantsandjuniors](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news/tag/infantsandjuniors) [music](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news/tag/music) [2021-2022](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news/tag/2021-2022) - [ previous](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news/2022-03-23-senior-school-sixth-form-ski-trip-to-les-deux-alps) - [next ](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news/2022-03-24-kgs-perform-dream-on-first-live-production-in-over-two-years) - [Mission Statement](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/mission-statement) - [Latest News](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news) - [History of KGS](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/history) - [Location & Community](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/location) - [Term Dates](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/termdates) - [Statutory Information](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/statutory-information) - [School Policies](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/policy-documents) - [Calendar](https://calendar.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/week.aspx?ID=158) - [The Kirkhamian](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news-1/the-kirkhamian) - [The Friends of KGS](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/thefriends-of-kgs) - [Old Kirkhamians' Association](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/old-kirkhamians-association) - [Hire of Facilities](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/hire-of-facilities) - [Vacancies](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/vacancies/our-vacancies) ## Kirkham Grammar School ## Kirkham Grammar Junior, Infant & Pre-School Ribby Rd Kirkham Preston Lancashire PR4 2BH Tel: **01772 684264** Email: Ribby Road Kirkham Preston Lancashire PR4 2BD Tel: **01772 673222** Email: [![HMC Leading Independent Schools](https://files.schudio.com/kirkham-grammar-school/images/partners/hmc.png)](https://www.hmc.org.uk/)[![Boarding Schools' Association](https://files.schudio.com/kirkham-grammar-school/images/partners/bsa.png)](http://www.boarding.org.uk/) © Copyright 2019–2026 Kirkham Grammar School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
