He is a talented musician and the flute is his speciality. He studies music and passed the Associate Board of the Royal Music Society grade 4 exams and plays flute in the school’s music society. He says he practices every day for at least half an hour, sometimes longer. It takes up a lot of his time but it is his passion. The bagpipes are a woodwind instrument like the flute, so he is good at making them sound. The keys are totally different and so the fingering is a challenge, but he is keen to master it.
Although by his own admission he is not a great sportsman, he does participate. He plays basketball in one of the lower teams in the summer and in the winter, he plays rugby.
