THE Fairmead School choir from Yeovil proved they were a Christmas number one hit when they entertained staff and visitors this week at South Somerset District Council’s Brympton Way offices.

The choir sang a variety of Christmas songs for 45 minutes in the main reception and were joined by staff from the district council who listened to them during their performance.

Fairmead’s acting deputy head, Alison Taylor, said: “The children really enjoyed singing to the council staff at the SSDC offices today and the audience were fantastic.

Council leader, Cllr Ric Pallister, who arranged the visit by the school, added: “This has been a great opportunity to showcase the school and the amazing achievements that the staff and students make in preparing a very special group of youngsters for a world beyond school.

“I never fail to be humbled by their achievements because you can see on their faces just how much they strive to get that “personal best” time after time.

“Giving our staff and those visiting the offices the chance to be a part of this wonderful lead up to Christmas has been a privilege and I am grateful that they found the opportunity to visit us.”
