Since January a group of our boys from Years 7 to 10  were involved in the Commonwealth Children’s Choir with students from several primary schools across Newham.

Ms Brockett and Jess accompanied the boys to many appointments and many rehearsals to perfect their performances at unsociable hours to events at RAF Northolt, Horseguards Parade, The Household Guard and Beating the Retreat.

They recorded a song entitled ‘A Worldwide Family – A Song For The Commonwealth’ at Northolt to commemorate Her Majesty’s 90th birthday.

The boys really enjoyed the experience with all its pomp and ceremony with the Beating of the Retreat  and its fantastic firework display at the conclusion a favourite and memorable night for all those who went.

Everyone involved said their involvement is something they will remember all their lives and they felt privileged to have taken part.
