During the BBC Children in Need Appeal Show on Friday 16 November, choirs of children and young people from all around the UK will perform together, live on BBC One.

With just three weeks to go until their live performance in front of the whole nation, the BBC Scotland Children In Need Choir came together for the first time this week - 123 pupils from 22 schools across Aberdeen and the Shire!

Choir Master Andrew Panton guided the students, who range from 9-17 years, and helped them with their harmonies while the teachers looked proudly down from the balcony.

Pudsey paid a very special visit and the Choir were delighted to see him as you can see! Pudsey was very impressed with the singing and gave a massive thumbs up!

The countdown is on!

A massive thank you to the Choir, parents and of course Andrew Panton who drew the natural talent out of the youngsters.
