An all-day event for KS2 children and their teachers in B&NES, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire. You will form part of a massed choir, learn new songs, build vocal skills and technique, and have a LOT of fun!
This year we are delighted to have Emily Barden deliver our Big Sings. Emily is a professional composer, songwriter, choral director and workshop leader. She has composed many songs for and with young people, and has worked with numerous local and national arts organisations including Sing Up, the Philharmonia Orchestra, and Britten Pears Arts.
