The Big Christmas Sing in Oxford

Tonight I went along to the Big Christmas Sing in Oxford Town Hall and as you will see from the photo above, this was a great setting for some of Oxfordshire's primary schoolchildren at the start of the festive season.  We had a good mix of both traditonal carols and other songs which were excellently presented.

It was all in support of Christian Aid who are raising money for the victims of the recent typhoon in the Philippines, so all for a good cause.  Grove Church of England School at North Drive sang 'The Donkeys Christmas Carol' and Stanford in the Vale C of E Primary sang 'Stille Nacht' (Silent Night), the Traditional German carol in both German and English. 

There were ten primary schools taking part altogether which was very impressive.  There will be another concert tomorrow evening at the same venue with another set of schools on stage.  A very enjoyable evening.
