Wonderful to welcome HRH The Duke of Edinburgh to Barnsley for a private performance. We’re so proud of the 220 young people who took part, and grateful to those that facilitated the visit.
168 children and young people signed up to join. It’s fantastic to welcome so many new members. There’s still time to join a world-class team. https://t.co/emVYJDSXex

Photos by @ianwallacephoto of @BYCChildrenEAST (7-11 yrs), one of our 3 Children’s Choirs performing at last week’s Spring concerts. Although all members weren’t able to attend, is wonderful to see this choir really thriving with over 40 members now.
“You give them somewhere safe to grow up in; community and friends; something to love and to belong to; you teach them not to be afraid of high standards, discipline and rigour and help them to release that such qualities will help them stand, not fall; grow, not fail."
JOIN BYC IN ‘24

A year ago we were concerned that @BYCChildrenEAST was struggling for numbers. Today 31 children took part in the rehearsal and we now have 36 on the register! They are a brilliant team - come and join in the fun! https://t.co/emVYJDTv45
It’s nearly ready!! A 30+ page resource pack for schools. Songs, warm-ups, guidance, demo videos and audio tracks. A huge but exciting piece of work. All FREE of charge to partner schools + a free workshop in school too, showing how it can be used. A great resource!
Amazing!!! Fabulous to see children in this area singing so confidently after only one session. Thank you for helping to raise awareness of fabulous opportunities in the Dearne area. https://t.co/ercyStPmzy
Sensational result from our one hour workshop to enthuse our children and upskill our teachers. Thank you @MatWright5 and Luke, Charlie and Lee from @BarnsleyChoir So proud of our children! Thank you to our parent audience too!
Fantastic to see! We’d love to see some more children at @BYCChildrenEAST on Wednesday nights at @AstreaDearne from 5.45-7.30pm. It’s a fantastic team and they’d have the best time.
@BYCChildrenEAST performed wonderfully at the Dearne Community Arts Festival today. Such a joy to be involved in such a fantastic local event at @AstreaDearne For many it was their first ever public performance. A great day!
When over 2000 audience members join in with the Childrens Choirs and even do all of the actions! Blissful fun at the @festunderstars 2023. Thank you to the audience member for sending this through to us. 15 yr old Darcy Preston is the fearless soloist…
