A CELEBRATION of music and acting was held at Croome Court for the children of the Rivers Academy CE Trust.

Children from St Clement's CE School, Cutnall Green First School, Great Witley CE Primary and Heronswood Primary, Kidderminster all took part in Riversfest.

The festival brought together the four schools which all belong to the multi-academy trust.

The celebration was inspired by Paula Evans, a professional singer and the trust's director of music, who wanted to enable the children from the four schools to sing together and with adults.

The children performed together during the day and evening and as within their individual schools.

As part of the event, they sang a song called Mr Capability, created by local composer, Chris Long, for the National Trust.

The song celebrates the work of landscaper Capability Brown, who designed the gardens at Croome Court.
