The Pensby School magazine

The 'Pensby Post' has been continuing for nearly six successful years, showing video game reviews, to latest updates, and too student success such as personal achievements and exam results. But now, the 'Pensby Post' has agreed to preview some new articles, one of which is representing the Musical talent of Pensby.

The 'Pensby Post' has reached a new level of articles, the music articals has been described as "possibly the most successful and most readable articles that the 'Pensby Post has to offer". It first occurred to the 'Pensby Post' team that they needed something new in their series of monthly Pensby magazines. The team began to notice that there was a lot of 'musical activity' among the school, such as many students from a mixture of year groups creating their own bands, taking there music styles to new limits, making new styles and recreating music from previous era's.

Several bands of Pensby have performed in a variation of shows and gigs, including Pensby's very own 'Christmas Concert', there have been many school bands with local success, one of which is a band lead by graduate sixth form student Adam Chadwick, performing from gig to gig all around Merseyside.

It has also been announced that Pensby High Schools musical orchestra will be composing music for school play 'Grease', scheduled for 2011, expressing more musical talent within the schools presence.  

These changes and new articles are yet to come in next months issue of the 'Pensby Post'.
