CHILDREN with special educational performed for an audience of 5,000 at the Royal Albert Hall.

Students from Baginton Fields Academy and Sherbourne Fields School performed a new piece at a music gala organised by the Warwick-based choir and music charity Armonico Consort.

They shared the stage with 2,000 pupils from 50 mainstream schools, as well as professional singers from Armonico Consort, Orchestra of the Swan, and dancers including Strictly star Karen Hauer.

Workshop leader Ella Rainbird-Earley said: “Creating Precious Energy with the children from Sherbourne Fields and Baginton Fields schools was a wonderful experience.

“I feel grateful to have worked with such willing and creative young people who had such big, fearless ideas on how we could protect the world and all its precious natural resources.”

The charity is currently fundraising to deliver more such projects, encouraging people to donate an hour of their salary or retirement equivalent to its ‘What a Difference an Hour Can Make’ campaign.
