School choir in perfect harmony

Ormiston Meadows Academy pupils took part in the event at Sheffield Arena, helping to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Young Voices

The 21-strong choir from the Peterborough school joined 5,000 from across the country performing a variety of songs - including Life on Mars as a tribute to David Bowie.

The school sang alongside Tom Billington, who has toured with The Killers and Razorlight and classical star Laura Wright.

Eve Warner, from the school, said: “There were over 5000 children singing in unison at the event. We sang a huge variety of songs, including our school favourite ‘Power In Me.’ As well as fabulous singing, the audience and the children were treated to performances from Urban Strides - a dance crew led by Andy Ibstone. The crew led us in our own dance along to ‘Uptown Funk’.”
