Sir, As a Vale councillor, I was fortunate to be invited to a Festival of Carols by Abingdon and District Primary Schools Music Association earlier this month at St Helen’s Church, Abingdon.
What joy to see our future citizens performing, to hear so many young people speaking and singing so clearly, with the John Mason School orchestra and organist Paul Herrington providing the music. The programme mix of traditional and modern was excellent.
As I sat in this beautiful church looking at the doves carved above, I thought how much we owe our teachers. I salute them all.
