Royal Hospital School Chapel Choir Sing at St Paul’s Cathedral

The Royal Hospital School’s (RHS) Chapel Choir had the honour of singing at St Paul’s Cathedral for the Annual National Service for Seafarers, which took place on the 11^th of October. The special annual service for Seafarers was first held in 1905. Now, 117 years later, the service and congregation continue to reflect on the full range of the maritime activities of the nation.

RHS was joined by the choirs of Pangbourne College, The Royal School, and The London Nautical School. The Band of His Majesty’s Royal Marines CTC Lympstone also performed during the service. RHS’ participating pupils thoroughly enjoyed this experience, representing the school brilliantly.

Ed Allen, Director of Music at RHS, said: “At the Royal Hospital School, we are proud of our choir and musical achievements. To have the honour of singing at St Paul’s Cathedral is a privilege that our school and pupils will remember for a long time to come, and we hope this also inspires our future pupils too.”
