Young singers brought tears to their parents' eyes when they performed at the Royal Festival Hall.

Children from Quainton Hall School, in Hindes Road, Harrow, sang in the National Choir Competition at the iconic building on London's Southbank.

The school’s chapel choir was one of the smallest to have been selected for the final.

Headteacher Simon Ford said: “The concert was simply outstanding.

“The children showed no difficulty in filling the performance space and really taking the roof off with their beautiful singing.

“The children performed to a full house and truly did both themselves and the school proud. There were certainly a few tears in both my and the parents’ eyes as we all looked on in wonder as the children performed.”
