Congratulations
Well done to Briary School, in Herne Bay. They have won a Silver Award from Sing Up programme.. Briary is the first Kent school to receive an award, and one of the first schools in the country (only 20 silver and gold awards have been given).
Sing up said: ‘ Well done - the level and variety of singing in the school is something for you to be very proud of! Sing Up is the Music Manifesto’s National Singing Programme. It’s a programme to make sure that singing is at the heart of every primary school child’s life. We believe that singing has power to change lives and help to build stronger communities. see www.signup.org for more details.
