LONDON — A GROUP of schoolchildren battled the odds to take part in the Olympic opening ceremony.
Pupils from West Lea School and Hazelbury Junior School, in Haselbury Road, Edmonton, endured long hours of rehearsals and braved some personal difficulties including broken fingers and illness to join in the Kaos Signing Choir’s performance of God Save The Queen on Friday night.
Twelve kids, aged eight to 15, from the schools had been rehearsing in top secret since April to take part in Danny Boyle’s extravaganza, which reportedly cost £27million and was watched by a global audience of a billion people.
