Faculty of Pedagogy

On 23 May, the spring meeting of the Scientific Students’ Conference was held at the Faculty of Pedagogy of Gál Ferenc University, together with the traditional Spring Concert.

As part of the afternoon programme, the choir of the Szarvasi Primary School and Nursery School of the GFE “Voices of the Heart” performed first, followed by the choir of the Faculty of Pedagogy, and the concert was closed by a joint performance of the two choirs. Zsolt Aradi played the piano, and Krisztina Balláné Tóth was the choir leader. We would like to thank the two choirs and their teachers for the melodies that delighted both heart and soul.
