Wellington School Awards Evening


Last night was the annual Awards Evening for Wellington School, held at the Bridgewater Hall. Over two hours of speeches, presentations, the school band, and the school choir.

This year's school sponsored walk raised an incredible £31,000 for the Francis House Children's Hospice, in Didsbury: http://www.francishouse.org.uk/

The choir are seen in full song here, albeit dwarfed by the Bridgewater Hall organ, which in the 1990s was "the largest instrument of its kind to be installed in Britain for almost a century and is the jewel in the crown of one of Europe's finest concert halls. "
