Young Voices 2026
On Friday 6th February, we took our choir of 58 children to Co-op Live, Manchester to take part in the Young Voices 30th Anniversary Concert within a massed choir of over 7800 children.
The children had an amazing time singing with the massed choir and some special guests including the amazing 18 year-old Manchester indie artist, Alex Spencer, the American vocalist, Aneesa Folds and the fabulous guitar player, Tom Billington. They also enjoyed dancing with Andy Instone and the Urban Strides troupe.
This year, we had front row seats, right next to the steps used by all the artists to enter and leave the stage. The children were thrilled to be able to meet some of the artists and even share some high fives and handshakes!

The afternoon rehearsals were great fun and prepared us for the evening concert. We were thrilled to discover that our seats had an excellent view of the stage.
The children and staff were very excited to have the opportunity to see the performing artists and the musicians and to be able to practice all the songs we had been busy learning at school.
