Pixie, who grew up in Brentwood, said: "Music is such an important part of my life and I champion any initiative that gives it the platform it deserves. I'm thrilled to be able to come into a school and inspire kids to get more involved in it. I just hope they enjoyed it as much as I did."
Headteacher Carol Mason said: "We hope that Pixie's visit today will encourage even more to get involved with music and possibly take up a musical instrument. We hope her talk will inspire them to pursue their dreams."
