In 2009 the choir returned to Manchester to compete in the Songs of Praise competition, a venture which culminated in March when we were again awarded the title of 'Songs of Praise Junior School Choir of the Year' for 2009. Last autumn the choir sang with Aled Jones to create a special CD for Children in Need. In September 2010 the Senior Choir were invited to sing in a Church of Ireland Gala Concert in the Belfast Waterfront Hall. The evening was conducted by the world famous Cambridge composer, Dr John Rutter. The choir participated in a workshop with Dr Rutter in Fisherwick Presbyterian Church, Belfast before taking part in the concert.

We are very proud of our Senior Choir and this year can boast some seventy members making us one of the largest after school clubs!
