On 27th November the choir took part in the Young Voices Concert at the O2. All term the students have worked hard in learning the set songs for this performance and on the day sang along with 7000 other school children to a mass audience. There was a live band on stage and we performed alongside Des’ree as part of the Big Sing, a world record attempt for the most number of children simultaneously singing around the country. It was a fantastic event and a great opportunity for our students to sing alongside other schools and perform with various professional musicians and dancers. Well done to everyone who took part, students and staff, to make this such a memorable event!

Well done to all the choir for their commitment and enthusiasm to singing!
