South Axholme Academy pupil Freddie Halkon was the youngest competitor in a recent Class Act competition in Scunthorpe. But his rendition of Ed Sheeran’s Castle on the Hill was loved by both judges and audience, and he achieved second place.

Of the £500 prize money he won, £250 is for his school to utilise.

It was decided the money will help Y8 pupil George Grattage to go to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to perform.
