April 2019 - Before Easter our North Somerset Good Afternoon Choir visited the local Golden Valley Primary School where the choir and children joined together in a workshop. At the end of the afternoon, parents and carers came to watch a short performance.. as you will see from our pictures, a great time was had by all!
