More than 100 pupils are back from Lourdes, France, where they helped the sick and handicapped.

The trip to the Catholic shrine is an annual event in which youngsters aged 14-18 go to France as part of the school's service to the sick.

Pupils are to put on a musical evening on Monday. The children, aged 11-16, will perform a concert with the school choir using their own work and various other songs. Proceeds will go towards buying new musical equipment.

The concert, to be held in the school hall, will start at 7.30pm and refreshments will be served. Tickets cost £2 and £1 for pupils.
