Year 6 Choir’s Christmas Treat

Halcyon House

On Tuesday 8th December the Year 6 choir boys went to a retirement home called Halcyon House in Formby. We travelled by minibus with Mr.Youngson and Mr.Holroyd. After performing eight songs were each given a selection box, which was very nice.

Whilst we were there we also had a chance to have an interesting little chat to the residents of Halcyon House. Some of them were Merchants old boys or girls or had children who went to our school (some a long time ago).

15 children participated and we thought we sang very well whilst we were there.
Five of the songs we performed were very festive and one was actually written by a former pupil’s father.

Overall, for all of the choir it was a very enjoyable afternoon out – made even better when we returned with some tasty chocs!
