St John The Baptist Primary School, Portadown

Local Schools Unite for a Festive Celebration

17th Dec 2025

Children from schools across our local community came together for a wonderful afternoon of music and joy at the recent Christmas concert held at St. John the Baptist Church, Portadown as part of the National Schools Singing Programme. The event showcased the incredible talent and enthusiasm of pupils as they performed a selection of festive songs, filling the cathedral with warmth and cheer.

This collaborative celebration highlighted the spirit of unity and friendship among our schools, creating lasting memories for everyone involved.

A special thanks to Emer Agnew Photography for capturing the wonderful pictures, and to our amazing singing teachers Sarah Jane and Orla for their fantastic effort and dedication over the last couple of weeks. Your hard work made this event truly magical!
