George Jones Christmas Concert
 
The 22nd of December 2005 was a momentous day in the life of the school choir. Following the success of the Christmas CD, the choir received a call from George Jones the Radio Ulster DJ. George invited the choir to appear on his annual "George Jones Christmas Special" live from the Ulster Hall in Belfast.
   

We were on the bill with Dominic Kirwin, Marc Roberts, Moya Brennan (from Clannad), Leya, Leading Ladies, Don Mescal, Gerard Kenny, Festival Brass and a host of other famous stars.

George Jones and David Kilpatrick (the producer) were both really friendly and very reassuring to the children. It was a very exciting experience taking part in a live radio broadcast and watching all that goes on behind the scenes. The sandwiches and juice were tremendous as well.

It was a day that both the teachers and children will remember for the rest of their lives.
Thanks George, for inviting us!
