Tackling declining engagement with music in state schools across the UK, the Schools Singing Programme has completed a pilot programme in Northern Ireland.
Funded by UK charity, the Hamish Ogston Foundation, the Northern Ireland branch of the project united 600 children from the selected schools in the Archdiocese of Armagh and the Diocese of Dromore to celebrate their participation in the eight-week singing pilot.
