The live music festival, organised by South Ribble Council, took place in May and featured performances across multiple venues, celebrating local talent. Year 8 Morgan is a regular performer at events and sang and played his guitar in a 45-minute section. “I have played at Longton and Chorley Live so I am used to playing in front of an audience. I play the Stone Roses and Gerry Cinnamon, music like that. “I have been playing the guitar since I was five and have had music lessons with KTB Music for around two years. I would like to build a career on it. I got into performing through Open Mic nights. My friends think it’s pretty cool.” Year 9 Imogen’s performance was one-time only. She said: “I have had singing lessons since Christmas and wanted to perform but I won’t do it again. I sung ‘Take Me Out’ and four other songs. “While I enjoy singing, I want to play bass and I would prefer to be more in the background. I am part of ‘The Rock Project’ out of school.” Year 9 Erin is also part of the ‘The Rock Project.’ “I sang with the group at Penwortham Live. I enjoy performing so it was good. I do have lessons and I would like to take my singing further.” Year 8 Ruby took to the stage and performed ‘Hopelessly devoted to you.’ “I have been having singing lessons for a while and have performed in front of an audience a couple of times. I am part of the Pauline Quirk Academy.” *Photo credit: Central Radio Community Photographer David Beech* ![](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/images/news/1000048977.jpg) [Music](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/music) [Community](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/community) [Personal Development](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/personal-development) [ Year 10 Footballers Into The South Ribble Cup Finals](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/2026-05-22-year-10-footballers-into-the-south-ribble-cup-finals) [Year 7 Pupils Train to Support Visually Impaired Classmate ](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/2026-06-02-year-7-pupils-train-to-support-visually-impaired-classmate) ### Penwortham Priory Academy Crow Hills Road Penwortham Preston Lancashire PR1 0JE 01772 320250 ### Useful Links - [New Year 7 Transition](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/about-priory/transition) - [The School Day](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/the-school-day) - [Facility Hire](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/facility-hire-at-priory) - [Term Dates](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/termdates) - [Letters](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/letters) ### Useful Links - [Newsletters](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/newsletters) - [OFSTED](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/about-priory/ofsted-report) - [Online Payments](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/internet-payments) - [Staff Contact](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/staff/staff-contact-list) - [Vacancies](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/staff/vacancies) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/priorystc) - [X](https://twitter.com/@priorystc) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/penworthampriory/) Penwortham Priory Academy Trust is operating as a single academy trust.
