Our thanks to OE, Aryan (KES 20-25) who kindly contributed to the judging panel at this year's Battle of the Bands.  Aryan is an accomplished musician and competed in Battle of the Bands himself on multiple occasions whilst at KES. As a talented guitar and bass player, he was ideally placed to judge this year's performances having previously won three awards at the event with his band.  He listened carefully to all the entries before deciding, along with other members of the panel, on the eventual winners.  The Battle of the Bands is an annual event raising valuable funds for the KES Summer Camp project that provides a summer break for some of Southampton's young carers.
