Kings Ford Academy Celebrates a Fantastic Music Festival
Kings Ford Academy was alive with music, energy, and excitement as children, staff, families, and members of the community came together for our annual Music Festival.
The event showcased the incredible talent, creativity, and confidence of our children, who performed a wide range of musical styles throughout the afternoon. From inspiring solo performances to energetic group acts, every student displayed remarkable dedication and enthusiasm, demonstrating the valuable skills they have developed through their musical experiences at King's Ford Academy.
A particular highlight of the day was seeing children collaborate across different year groups, encouraging one another and celebrating each other's successes. The event reflected Kings Ford Academy’s commitment to providing enriching opportunities that promote creativity, self-expression, and personal development.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all the staff, families, volunteers, and performers who helped make the festival such a success. Their support, encouragement, and hard work contributed to an unforgettable day for everyone involved.
The Music Festival was a wonderful celebration of talent, community, and achievement, and we are incredibly proud of all our children for their outstanding performances. We look forward to building on this success and creating even more opportunities for our young musicians to shine in the future.
Well done to everyone who took part and helped make the day such a memorable occasion. 🎵🎤🎸🥁
All after-school clubs this week have been cancelled.

The school took part in “Break the Rules Day”, which has become an annual favourite among the children. The event was held in aid of Kids Inspire, a children’s mental health charity that offers free trauma support to families who might otherwise struggle to access it. They have worked closely with our children and families for many years, and we are incredibly fortunate to have had Maria as a consistent and valued source of support throughout that time.
Thanks to the enthusiasm and generosity of our children, families, and staff, we are delighted to share that we raised an amazing £356.82 for this wonderful cause.
