The St Andrews Bangkok annual House Music Competition encourages musical students and families to compete for House Points, this year we have combined this competition with the Nord Anglia's Global Campus Virtual Young Musician of the Year. This is a great competition where students are able to showcase their musical skills in many different categories. Every student is welcome to submit their entries into their school competition.
The Virtual Young Musician of the Year Competition has grown a lot. Over the years, we have received many outstanding performances from our Nord Anglia students. We are extremely proud of every single student who has entered this competition. Due to growing demand, this year we have changed the way the competition is run.
