The choir from St Stephen’s Church of England Primary School visited Bolton Road Methodist Church, Abbeydale Residential Home, and Fusilier Court in Bury, and performed a selection of songs for the residents and members of the local community. They encouraged their audience to join them in singing some well-known Christmas Carols such as 'We Wish you a Merry Christmas'. Once they'd finished singing, the children and residents enjoyed engaging in some beautiful and meaningful conversations about their plans for Christmas and learning about each other's lives. Choir lead Isabel Potter said: “It was a special and memorable moment for all involved. “The children were so polite and friendly.”If you have a story and something you would like to highlight in the community, please email me at jasmine.jackson@newsquest.co.uk or DM me on Twitter @JournoJasmine.
