As a retired arts teacher, this is what we work so hard for, kids expressing themselves and being the best they can, and thoroughly enjoying it….fantastic to see such all round talent from staging to lighting, singing and instruments… I cried last year and this, reminds me why I loved to teach such wonderful young people. Thank you!
Congratulations to the production staff (video, sound, mixing, lighting, etc.) that brought this wonderful production to life for everyone around the world to enjoy.
Please DM Coldplay so they might see this fabulous production. Loved this. Congratulations to the STAC students and musical director. You turned an already beautiful anthem into something magical. 🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ
There is hope for nzs future! Kudos to the music teacher and students!! Fantastic performance! Loved seeing another side to our heritage and ancestry which is being forgotten at present. Well done and Merry Christmas. Made my day! X
🇳🇿Don’t be fooled by the boys in kilts.. this school is in Christchurch, New Zealand 🇳🇿 School culture maintains its Scottish links. The Māori Haka blended with pipe band drummers and tartan outfits at this prizegiving was also a unique blend to see 😍
❤❤❤❤❤❤Chefs kiss💋 Our school doesn't even have a choir😢bring back music song and productions in ALL New Zealand schools ❤❤❤this talent is world-class Congratulations guys n girls ❤❤❤
I am blown away. So much talent! It gave me goosebumps and brought me to happy tears at the end. Congratulations to all of the students and teachers involved.
Stunning!!! Can't stop watching it on repeat 🤩 It was an unbeatable live performance, brilliantly orchestrated and conducted to showcase the phenomenal talent on the stage. Sssoooo good 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
As a Cold Play fan (my favourite song of theirs), fellow musician, and father of a recent 2020 "old collegian", I thoroughly approve and love this incredibly creative rendition! Bravo! Just superb!!
Absolutely stunning performance. Totally agree with Annaspanners comments about "seeing another side to our heritage and ancestry which is being forgotten at present." Loved last years, loved this years, waiting for next year. Bring it on!!
Played this throughout twice, picking up on different instrumental and vocal nuances. A stage packed with talent (and hard work). Well done St Andrew’s students and faculty.👏🏻
So good, this and Stairway to Heaven. This also was right around end of year exams so I'm guessing they would have had to do a bit of study and practice. Make a few more and have a wee concert to raise money for the school etc I'd come. Brilliant
Just beautiful, amazing work, students, teachers and production crew! So great to see and hear the students up there shining, and an amazing arrangement and I hope Chris Martin gets to view this. I thoroughly enjoyed this. Well done students of STAC! ~ Gen 🌸
Dammit ... you did it again .... Fabulous - and even a step forward with the production. So well done. School and parents must be proud ... Brilliant arrangement ... Beautifully done ...... With everything that's going on in the world, something like this says there is hope! ...
This is incredibly outstanding! I wish I could have been there to see this live. Congratulations to all of you for this outstanding performance ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It was very emotional wasn’t it, seeing them all working together & enjoying to process to produce such a fantastic performance! Big congratulations to all involved!
Stunning! Wonderful to see all your talented music students rock this showstopper. Do you sell tickets in the North Island for this show? Please? your parents have to be proud of that!
Love it well done again St Andrews . I wonder if it was inspired by a performance a few years ago by Strathallan School in Scotland ! Who knows but from a Scot in NZ Vive L,Ecosse
Masterfully done all round....not a big Coldplay fan,but watching these kids brought a lump to my throat & a tear to my eye. The sheer volume of talent,dedication & passion were absolutely delightful to see,so happy tears. I cannot leave out their musical director,brilliant song choice & the arrangement is magnificent.....I've run out of superlatives,so again,well done🙏👏👏👏👏
Geez I'd love to know what you consider "performance " means? Pretentious, they were astounding talent working together. Am so proud of our young people performing at this high level 😊

I can’t believe St Andrew’s has done it again. Well done to all the students and teachers. You guys nailed it.
If Chris Martin and the other Coldplay band members aren't blown away by this, then I renounce my fandom. An outstanding performance. Congrats to all.
So proud of these young New Zealanders… brought tears of joy to my eyes!!❤
loved it. Thanks guys.
Congratulations to the production staff (video, sound, mixing, lighting, etc.) that brought this wonderful production to life for everyone around the world to enjoy.
Absolutely outstanding. Hard to believe it's a bunch of highschool kids, I'd pay to see this kind of performance live.

Amazing - such talent. Hope Coldplay get to see this.
I think that Coldplay is trying to get them on their stage for the next world tour. But Coldplay are competing with The Kid LAROI lol.
An amazing performance an talented music teacher who loves his music and students obviously adore him

It's called priorities. Rugby and tribal education; or arts and culture of all New Zealanders.
Was even better live… the experience of the intro musicians hidden in the audience seating was great. 😊🎉

The best several minutes of my day. Fabulously talented.
Just brilliant, thanks you made my day

Whoever wrote that arrangement is a genius
William Ernest :)
Outstanding! Got the waterworks streaming. Congratulations to everyone at St Andrew's. 😍
Vocalists doing it without earpieces - quite hard when there’s an orchestra behind you. Impressive.
Absolutely stunning performance. Totally agree with Annaspanners comments about "seeing another side to our heritage and ancestry which is being forgotten at present." Loved last years, loved this years, waiting for next year. Bring it on!!
Outstanding.
I’m going to St Andrew’s soon and I just missed the prize giving by a year 😭

Bellisimo❤❤❤

Gern geschehen
If only all of New Zealand's students could have this opportunity.
We completely agree
Indeed we'll said
Yes, and currently KO is trying to remove funding for the most vulnerable children in New Zealand, specifically the Stand Tu Maia program.

@@kiwi007 English translation please.
This just makes my heart sing.
This was so cool to see.
Brilliant. Just brilliant.

Shhh... Don't tell Coldplay, but I like the St Andrew's version better than the original 😉
more pretentious rubbish from this school
There is an off button if it is not to your liking.
I can't believe a comment like that. What a sad life you must lead..
Bet you're fun at parties .... goose ....
Geez I'd love to know what you consider "performance " means? Pretentious, they were astounding talent working together. Am so proud of our young people performing at this high level 😊
I feel some jealousy in your comment.
