News Winter Jam: Packed Programme of Emerging Talent 13.11.2025

Iovember’s Winter Jam was a wonderful evening, with the Hall packed to the rafters with parents and performers alike.

More bands than ever before featured, and all solo items were accompanied by friends or even family members, a testament to the enthusiasm the Godolphin community has for these events. Performances were confident and professional, showcasing a variety of songs from covers to originals. It is fair to say that parents and staff were bowled over by the talent on display!

The Jam concluded with a brilliant debut performance from the Year 7 Choir, who sang the song ‘Can’t Catch Me Now’ by Olivia Rodrigo, accompanied by Ashley Yin on acoustic guitar. Having now experienced their first Jam, we are hoping that some might feel inspired to try out for the Spring Jam next term!
