PUPILS at Ysgol Emrys ap Iwan were treated to a performance by Only Boys Aloud.

James Lawson, former Ysgol Emrys ap Iwan pupil, came to the school along with his fellow singers.

They were joined by Eleri Watkins and Aled Evans, who work for the Aloud Charity. A recruitment workshop was led with year seven and eight pupils.

James was one of the founding members of the North Wales Only Boys Aloud. He told the group about his "amazing" experiences and his performances at Access All Eirias, Buckingham Palace and the Principality Stadium.

Laura Kestell, who organised the event, said: “Only Boys Aloud is a free choir that rehearse every week. The nearest choir for our learners is at Rhyl Golf Club. As the name suggests, only boys are allowed to join and every opportunity they have is completely free.”

Only Boys Aloud made their first appearance at the opening of the National Eisteddfod in Ebbw Vale in 2010.

They now have more than 200 teenage boys in 14 choirs across Wales.
