A VILLAGE school has become the first in North Somerset to win a coveted gong.

St Georges Primary School has been handed a Gold Sing Up! Award.

Sing Up is led by Youth Music, the UK’s largest children’s music charity.

The awards recognise the quality of singing in schools.

The Pastures Avenue-based pupils showed off their talents at a spring concert at the village church, where they were presented with their award by Sing Up! area leader Kathleen Still.
