Over 100 schoolchildren take part in Highbridge youth concert

-

More than 100 young people from the Burnham-On-Sea area gathered in Highbridge on Thursday evening (March 27th) to perform in a special concert organised by the town’s Rotary Club.

The schoolchildren came together for Burnham Rotary Club’s ‘Youth Makes Music’ concert.

Following the success of last year’s event, St John’s Church in Highbridge once again hosted the evening, which was not a competition but intended to encourage schools, staff and pupils to enjoy making and performing music.

Among the seven schools participating were Beechfield Infants, King Alfred, East Huntspill, Burnham Infants, St Josephs, St Andrew’s and Berrow Primary.

Over 200 people parents and family of the children crowded into the church to watch the event, which raised hundreds of pounds for each of the schools’ music departments.
