Welcome to our brand new shiny Vocal Group for 2021-22!
We have 65 singers on board, who have committed to be part of our wonderful group for the whole academic year. This will mean that, for certain events, we may not be able to take every singer along every time. In these events, the older members of Vocal Group will get first refusal of places.
Watch this space for tracks and lyrics to help you learn the music as fast as possible: time is tight for learning our repertoire!
YOUNG VOICES 2022
Young Voices is back for the first time since we participated in January 2020!
Our allocated concert will be on Thursday 3rd February 2022. We will leave school at lunchtime to arrive at the Sheffield Arena for an afternoon of rehearsals, followed by the evening concert, which usually finishes around 9pm. We then return to school by 10pm.
As it is such a late night, children who have sung in the concert can take advantage of an authorised later start the next morning.
Unfortunately, there is a limit on the numbers of children we can take to the concert. We have decided to give priority to the older (Y6 and Y5) classes first, then offer remaining places to Y4 and Y3, in that order. This is because, for the oldest children, this will be their last chance to go, but younger children will (hopefully!) get the opportunity in future years.

Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your door
I know that I'm a prisoner
To all my Father held so dear
I know that I'm a hostage
To all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
Crumpled bits of paper
Filled with imperfect thought
Stilted conversations
I'm afraid that's all we've got
You say you just don't see it
He says it's perfect sense
You just can't get agreement
In this present tense
We all talk a different language
Talking in defence
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye
So we open up a quarrel
Between the present and the past
We only sacrifice the future
It's the bitterness that lasts
So don't yield to the fortunes
You sometimes see as fate
It may have a new perspective
On a different day
And if you don't give up, and don't give in
You may just be okay
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye
Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your door
I know that I'm a prisoner
To all my Father held so dear
I know that I'm a hostage
To all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye
Say it loud, say it clear (x3)
Love shine a light, in every corner of my heart
Let the love light carry, let the love light carry
Light up the magic in every little part
Let our love shine a light, in every corner of our hearts
Love shine a light, in every corner of my dreams
Let the love light carry, let the love light carry
Like the mighty river, flowing from the stream
Let our love shine a light, in every corner of my dreams
And we're all gonna shine a light together
All shine a light to light a way
Brothers and sisters, in every little part
Let our love shine a light, in every corner of our hearts
Love shine a light, in every corner of the world
Let the love light carry, let the love light carry
Light up the magic, for every boy and girl
Let our love shine a light, in every corner of the world
And we're all gonna shine a light together
All shine a light to light a way
Brothers and sisters, in every little part
Let our love shine a light, in every corner of our hearts
And we're all gonna shine a light together
All shine a light to light the way
Brothers and sisters, in every little part
Let our love shine a light, in every corner of our hearts

When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
Hey Jude
Don’t let me down
You have found her, now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
Nah nah nah nanananahhh Hey Jude x2
Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet.
Who finds the money when you pay the rent?
Did you think that money was Heaven sent?
Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creeping like a nun
Monday’s child has learned to tie his bootlace
See how they run
Lady Madonna
Children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet.
Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they’re here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh I believe in yesterday.
Mmm mm mm mm mm mm mm
Little darling It’s been a long cold lonely winter
Little Darling, it feels like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun doo doo doo doo
Here comes the sun
And I say it’s allright
Here comes the sun doo doo doo doo
Here comes the sun
It’s allright
It’s allright
