Just over £1000 has been raised by the Rotary Club of Oxford for the charity Save the Children for their first ever Children Singing for Children event held by the club.
The concert involving over 100 children was very well supported by family and friends. The children came from a number of primary schools in Oxford.
The theme for the evening was ‘One World’. Each group chose 2 songs to sing on their own, and they joined together for a massed choir to sing 4 songs:- Children singing for Children; One World; A story told in glass; and World in Union.

The audience were joined by the Chairman of Oxfordshire County Council Cllr Zoe Patrick, the District Governor David Pope and a number of other local dignitaries.

Rotarians from the club were part of the organisation and a number were in the audience.
The event was held in Wesley Memorial Church, a Methodist church in the centre of Oxford. The President of the Rotary Club for this year Rev Dr Martin Wellings is the minister of the church.
He said ‘It was a wonderful event for Rotary, and for Save the Children, and for the church as well’
