Carol Service 2019

A very special afternoon was enjoyed by staff, students and members of our community today. We attended our annual Carol Service in St Maur's Church. An afternoon filled with beautiful music and words. Ms. Lynch, Ms McGann & Ms Murphy expertly organised the St Joseph's Music Group to fill the church with a range of beautiful carols and modern Christmas songs. Ms Cutliffe who brought the diverse voices of the Friendly Voices choir to a harmonious compilation with three different pieces. Ms Gibbons & Ms McGann prepared reflective, appropriate and festive readings for us to pause and think about during this advent season. It was a much needed break to give us all an opportunity to reflect on the true and real message of Christmas. Well done to all the teachers and students involved for sharing their gifts and talents with us today. It really was such a delight.
