PUPILS from Christie Park Primary School will feature in Scotland’s Christmas Choirs for a festive sing-along on STV Glasgow- to air on Christmas Day.

The Alexandria school will join other school children from around the West of Scotland in the TV celebration.

The festive treat will start at 2pm on STV Glasgow, with talented youngsters from more than 25 schools in Glasgow and the surrounding areas performing traditional carols- with some verses sang in different languages.

And Christmas favourites such as 'Unto Us A Child is Born', 'Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer' and 'Jingle Bell Rock' are expected to be part of the musical extravaganza.

STV Glasgow channel editor, Paul Hughes said: "This festive project is now in its third year and once again we’ve had a tremendous response from schools.

"What better soundtrack to every family’s festivities?

"The kids have been brilliant and I hope families all over the city will switch on to watch their children perform on television on Christmas Day."

Bailie Liz Cameron, Executive member for Children, Young People and Lifelong Learning, said: "What a truly wonderful partnership this is between STV Glasgow and the council.

"We have such talented young people and I love the fact their beautiful singing voices will be blasting out in houses across the city on Christmas Day – a joy for all.”

To give as many parents as possible the chance to see their children perform, Scotland’s Christmas Choirs will repeat again on Christmas Day at 7pm and also on Boxing Day on STV Glasgow at 9am.
