Miss Salau took her choir for an afternoon of  carol singing to entertain dementia, rehabilitation and palliative patients at East Ham Care Centre in Shrewsbury Road.

We have been doing this for the last ten years and this year instead of taking 6th Form singers, Miss Salau decided to take her younger students who were all really keen to go and sing for the residents.

The students visited two wards and sang for the patients in the lounge. It was heartwarming to see the pensioners joining in with the carols and they were really happy to see our boys.

Mr Halliwell drove the minibus and added: “Our students sang their hearts out for the patients and they were really excited to go along and help spread a little Christmas cheer.”
