The following pupils have been awarded Arts Colours with Distinction. The awarding of Arts Colours with Distinction recognizes those pupils that have really stretched themselves artistically to get thoroughly involved and immersed in the Arts at Wellington. They have gone well and truly beyond what is expected of them.   alex g oodwin [ r ] Alex has made an exceptional contribution to music and the arts at Wellington during his Sixth Form career. Such is his level of professionalism and dedication to keyboard and choral music that he has frequently substituted in chapel for the organist without anyone being aware. He has played regularly for important school occasions, sung with the chapel and scholars choirs, and conducted, coached and accompanied singers and instrumentalists alike. He is frequently asked by other students to help them prepare for performances. He gave a fine performance of a Bach concerto in the principal harpsichord chair before Easter. His ability has been recognised by his appointment as organ scholar at Chichester Cathedral next year — a post normally held by post-graduates.   j osh v icin o [ r ] He is involved with a variety of musical endeavours from bands to the orchestra. However, his contribution to the Jazz orchestra has been quite exceptional. Not only is he a musician of immense ability who is so often in the background because of being a rhythm section player, but his mature attitude, leadership and influence within the ensemble has been felt by everyone in the band. The band is fortunate to have such a key seat occupied by someone with so much talent, and this is a rare thing: however, his ability to communicate and lead the ensemble is rarer. l au r e n c e h e d g e s [c h a i r] sarah spencer simon williamson emma haining jane lunnon jim price w i l l i a m h e at h c ot e beaufort wyatt [t] keshan vaikunthanathan [l] joshua owolabi [a] ollie ralph [bd] hattie jones [hn] imogen halsey [o] callum davidson [pn] joshua olowabi [a] ashna shah [o] molly gray [o] harry keeble [ly] molly critchley [a] chloe james [w] amy bowerin [c] rob ferguson [bn] jamie allum [t] illias thoms [t] annabel west [ap] gudjon bodvarsson [bn] richard addicott [l] gary zhang [hg] alistair marjot [s] timothy chan [hl] joey nam [m] james mulvaney [hg] nick harris [bn] tob y macque e n [hl] bethan cotterill [hn] george turley [pn] laura dyer [o] claudia poulter [hn] eleanor walker [ap] ming bridges [ap] flo whittaker [hn] claudia stevenson [c] patrick dow [s] Top left:‘Indai’ by Annie Fiddian-Green Top right:‘Portrait of Bea’ by Emily Herring Bottom left:‘Pecking inWinter’ by Ben Kinnear Bottom right:‘Balance, imbalance’ by Thomas Wessely
