Talbot School Band 2010

The School Band perform at a number of events during the school year such as the Summer Concert, and play regularly in school assemblies. In past years they were honoured to play at Poole Civic Centre. The Middle School Choir also perform outside school and traditionally entertain local senior citizens with carol singing in December.

Additionally trips are arranged for Talbot children to go to musical and cultural events such as the Dorset Youth Orchestra concerts and ballet performances at Lighthouse, Poole.
