The pupils and staff at Woodlands School cheered and sang along to our repertoire of carols and Christmas tunes on a very cold and frosty morning. Fortunately the heating was turned up to full blast in their hall so we were all nice and toasty, just like Jesus in his cradle would have been!

Tesco allowed us to perform Christmas tunes and carols inside the shop because it was bitingly cold outside and didn't we do well? We played beautifully, shoppers complimented us on the music and the pupils' behaviour AND we collected £78 for PCA school fund. Brilliant!

The Band had to perform for the Mayor and her guests OUTSIDE the Town Hall because there had been a water leak inside! Nothing deters PCA Band, though, so we played on the pavement. Well done to the Band and the audience for braving the chilly weather!
