Sunday last saw the MacCafferty School Of Music’s Annual Charity Class Feis at the Millennium Forum, which this year was in aid of the Foyle Hospice.
The annual event that has been running for over fifty years now with proceeds always donated to charity, and usually a local charity.
Sunday’s event saw pupils from all ages from the school’s young talented singers coming along and performing in front of an audience made of up parents and the local community.
Speaking after Sunday’s successful Feis, MacCafferty School of Music director Una O’Somachain said she was very proud of all the youngsters who participated.
"Once again our young singers and performers have come out in their droves to support this very worthwhile annual charity event. I was delighted with the standard on the day and it was great to see so much family support throughout the day’s activities."
Thanking everyone who volunteered for their continued support, Una added: "A massive thank you to all those volunteers, be they making tea, organising, collecting monies and adjudicating – without you we could not make this the annual success it was.
"I believe the Foyle Hospice will once again benefit from the magnificent generosity that the feis people of Derry have shown once again. Wishing all my pupils a happy and peaceful Christmas and looking forward to seeing you all again in 2024."
