The Arborfield Bands
played a very important role in life at the school. They played at all the parade rehearsals
and parades that were a regular feature of the week. They also represented the school at
outside events, such as town fetes, Beating the Retreat ceremonies, parades
through towns such as Wokingham and Reading. Their presence was eagerly sought by
organisers of local events and wherever they went, they were very good
ambassadors of the Arborfield
Army Apprentices
School. There was also a Corps of Drums and a
photo is included in the Military Band section. Music For Pleasure saw the formation of
some groups.
