Primary School Pan, National‑Level Pride: St. Margaret’s Boys’ Anglican Take the Title

We can’t leave out the nursery pool of steelbands in this country. The young performers stepped up beautifully, delivering their best with heart and discipline. Although they may not yet possess the same level of enthusiasm as the older kids, their enthusiasm is evident. We salute the next generation—and the dedicated people guiding them toward excellence in steelpan music.

Drumroll… Congratulations to St. Margaret’s Boys’ Anglican Steel Orchestra on capturing first place at the National Primary Schools Panorama Finals, 2026. We applaud every band that took the stage and all those who continue to support, mentor, and represent our national instrument with pride.
