Boys & Girls in aid of C.R.Y.

On Tuesday 9th March 2010 a video company came to Amesbury to shoot a video of the children performing 'Boys and Girls' by Pixie Lott.  A selection of years 6, 7 and 8, and soloists Eleanor Hall and Freddy Austin spent much of the day being filmed in various locations.  First thing in the morning the main school piled in to the PAC to record the chorus.  There was a definite air of anticipation amongst the pupils as they waited outside beforehand, knowing they were going to be part of an exciting experience.

Friday 19th March marked a very special day in the Amesbury calendar as the CD launch in aid of CRY materialised into a fantasmagorical tour de force for the school.  Months of hard work, planning and preparation on behalf of the Amesbury staff and pupils and Hugh Goldsmith's team came to fruition.

The culmination of the night was a live version of 'Boys and Girls' with Eleanor and Freddy heading up the Amesbury ensemble.  The children really rocked the stage and looked truly delightful to be under the spotlight, their bright eyes and red cheeks glowing with the sheer enjoyment of the evening.  This was an unforgettable evening and one that Bas truly would have approved of.

'Boys and Girls' is now available on iTunes.
