St. Winifred’s School Choir – The Artist/s

St Winifred’s School Choir, from St Winifred’s Roman Catholic Primary School in Stockport, England, was a choir of children whose single in 1980 became that year’s British Christmas number one single. Entitled “There’s No One Quite Like Grandma”, written for the 80th birthday of Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother in 1980 by Gordon Lorenz, it sold one million copies, most of them Christmas presents from grandchildren. It spent two weeks at number one, and 11 weeks in the UK Singles Chart in total. Dawn Ralph provided the lead vocal of the song composed by award-winning record producer Gordon Lorenz. During the late 1970s and the 1980s, Miss Terri Foley trained and conducted the choir, who gave the Music for Pleasure record label its only UK No. 1 single.

No One Quite Like Grandma – The Song

‘No One Quite Like Grandma’  was a number-one hit in the UK Singles Chart, by the Stockport-based primary school choir St Winifred’s School Choir from 27 December 1980 to 3 January 1981. It was written by Gordon Lorenz. The song was a Christmas number-one single in both the UK and Ireland.

The Heart – The Shape

The heart shape and its meaning has evolved over hundreds of years. Nowadays it means love but before the 13th and 14th centuries it was generally drawn for decorative purposes. People at that time thought of our hearts as books of memory and believed feelings for the beloved were somehow written on your heart.

Grandparents are the parents of a person’s father or mother – paternal or maternal.
