Pupils at Colston's School in Stapleton completed a 24-hour music marathon over the weekend.

The school's swing band got the fun under way on Friday lunchtime and the music didn't stop until lunchtime on Saturday.

The non-stop programme included appearances by the school orchestra and wind band, drummers, singers, guitarists, brass and string players, pianists and a rock group.

The musicians were sponsored to raise money for another grand piano for the school, where more than 250 pupils – a third of the total – play musical instruments.

Some of the youngest pupils, from Colston's Lower School, performed on Saturday morning, while Colston's Choral Society ended the marathon
