HEREFORDSHIRE primary schools came together to form a big Christmas choir that brought festive spirit to the community.
Hundreds of children from Herefordshire primary schools gathered in Hereford Cathedral on December 3 to sing in the cathedral school’s combined carol service.
Hereford Cathedral School welcomed St Paul’s Church of England Primary School, Gorsley Goffs Primary School, Bishop Hooper Primary School, Mordiford Primary School and the Hereford Academy who joined Hereford Cathedral School’s junior and senior choirs as part of the music outreach programme.
The children sang a selection of traditional hymns and carols to create a service.
Their aim was to bring festive joy to the Herefordshire community this Christmas.
Director of music David Evans was delighted to be able to bring the county’s schools together again for the service.
“It’s been lovely to be able to invite a number of primary school choirs to come and join us in the cathedral again this year for the joint outreach carol service,” he said.
"The recording, which was very well timed before restrictions, involved many children who thoroughly enjoyed the experience and gave so much.”
