HITTING the right note at this year’s annual schools Christmas Concert were pupils from across North Lanarkshire.

More than 260 senior pupils from secondary schools performed in the annual Christmas musical extravaganza.

A captivated audience of parents, Provost Tom Curley, other elected members and invited guests were treated to some festive cheer.

The concert, performed at Motherwell Civic Theatre, included performances from the Wind Ensemble, Jazz Orchestra and Pipe Band, and offered a wide and varied programme with something for everyone.

Compere for the evening was Norrie McKay who again co-ordinated all the musical items and ensured a slick overall performance.
