Singing schoolchildren have recorded their very own song to raise cash for the One Love Manchester fund.

Youngsters from Bransty School in Whitehaven hit the recording studio on Friday to record their self-penned song, The Bransty Bees.

They are aiming to raise cash for One Love Manchester fund, following the terror attack at an Ariana Grande concert last month in which 22 people died and a further 120 were injured.

Emma Dockeray, the school's music co-ordinator, took around 30 Bransty school children to the Music Farm, in Egremont, to record the track.

She said: "It was so good. The children absolutely loved it.

"The four children who wrote the song recorded it first. Then the other children were split into groups to record it."

"You could tell they were all proud to be involved. The four songwriters were beaming with pride," she said.

Children aged from six up to ten took part in the venture.

During the recording session, they also had the chance to look behind-the-scenes to music recording.

"They all got the taste for the music life!" said Miss Dockeray.

The track will now be recorded onto CDs and sold at the school to raise funds.

She has said the cause is particularly special to the pupils as the school performed at a Young Voice concert, at Manchester Arena earlier this year.

Miss Dockeray has been doing singer-songwriter sessions at the school and giving the children the chance to talk and lean about music.

She said the children have a "real love for music".
