When you shoot at 24mm, you are going to get a little distortion. One suggestion I have has to do with the pose itself. Boys in the back with girls sitting is usually good, but they are looking either very uncomfortable or not sure how to smile. If you threw them together for a quick portrait, I can understand, but somehow, getting the colors of the clothes to match really helps a portrait. So, sit the girls closer together, maybe convert to B&W or chocolate. If possible, use a 50mm, or a lens closer to that.

Considering the number of kids, I think you did great! I can't get two to look normal at the same time! :lol:
