School choir spreads seasonal cheer at Halstead care home

Pupils from St. Andrews Primary School in Halstead dropped-in to the Colne View care home on Dame Mary Walk to perform a special carol service for residents and to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.  

According to Colne View home manager, Omar Taylor, the visit was a great way to celebrate the countdown to Christmas.  He said: “There is a great sense of excitement among everyone here at Colne View as the big day approaches and we have set out to make this time of year as special as possible for residents.  What better way to do this than to extend some seasonal goodwill to St. Andrews Primary School in Halstead and involve the pupils in our celebrations?

“The school’s choir was in fine voice for the carol service and everyone was singing along, which helped to evoke some lovely memories for residents. This was the latest of several festive events held at Colne View to capture the magic of Christmas and to thank the local community for all their support throughout the year, and it proved to be a wonderful afternoon which brought young and old together.”
