The Orme Academy in partnership with several local primary schools will be taking part in a community-based singing project to raise money for foodbanks in Alsager and Newcastle-under-Lyme.

The high school's virtual online singing project called 'Songbook 2020' will see the students singing the Disney classic – 'A Whole New World' from Aladdin.

AS well as providing a platform for young people to showcase their talents during the festive season, the aim of the project is to raise money and support local food banks via the JustGiving charity foundation.

The group's JustGiving page said: "Many families have been significantly affected by the recent pandemic and many more will feel even more vulnerable as Christmas approaches.

"The fabulous song will be performed by a group of young people who are committed to making a difference.

"They will be singing their hearts out to raise money for a worthwhile cause. We hope that the local community will join us on our 'magic carpet ride' and hopefully with the help and talent of the students, we can strive towards creating a 'whole new world' in 2021."
