One of the highlights of the trip was the band’s grade 4 mid-section drummers (bass and tenor drums) winning the best mid-section prize in the grade 4 competition a fantastic achievement against some tough competition. In March the band travelled to the North Island township of Feilding for the New Zealand Pipe Band Championships, competing against many polished bands in both the grade 4 and Juvenile competitions. In October 2014, still buzzing from its adventure in Scotland, the pipe band travelled to Canberra for the 2014 ACT Championships where it was crowned champions in the grade 4 competition.Ģ016 saw the pipe band vying for national championships on either side of the Tasman. The trip provided an incredible musical experience for the pipe band students and exposed them to many world class bands that rarely perform in Australia. In August 2014, members of the band travelled to Scotland to compete at several competitions including the World Pipe Band Championships. In 2014, the pipe band made its first international trip, performing at the Jakarta Highland Gathering where it was crowned South East Asian Champions in the Juvenile grade, a feat it repeated in 2015. By 1975, due to a lack of male recruits, interested girls were admitted to the band for the first time and remained as part of its composition. In 1972 the School was amalgamated with Woodstock Presbyterian School for Girls.
