Members of the Sir E Scott school choirs gave a performance at Harris Distillery on Friday ahead of their journey to the Royal National Mòd in Oban.
The young singers entertained distillery visitors with a selection of the songs which will be the Harris school’s entries in Mòd competitions.
Both primary and senior school choirs are due to travel by ferry and bus to the mainland at the start of the week.
As well as the group competitions, pupils from the Tarbert school as well as Leverhulme Memorial School will take part in individual spoken, instrumental and singing events.
The choir, led by conductor Jayne Macdonald, returned from last year’s Mòd having won trophies at junior and senior level.
The junior choir’s experience (and ferry journey) was also filmed by a crew from the BBC programme Island Crossings, which was broadcast in September.
A spokesperson for Sir E Scott choir parents’ fundraising group said “We would like to thank Harris distillery for their warm welcome last week, and everyone who has supported the choir’s journey to this year's Mòd, including those who contributed to our fundraising efforts, or have given their time to help with preparations.
“We wish the children all the best with their competitions, and hope that they have a wonderful experience in Oban.”
