Carol Service 2024

A beautiful service for the annual traditional carols.

Our annual Christmas Carol Service returned to the Chapel this year, split across four services to fit all our students and guests in. It was wonderful to see so many of our talented students performing traditional carols, accompanied by our remarkable musicians. Mixed in between these performances, the congregation joined in with classic carols such as Once in Royal David's City, Away in a Manger, and The Holly and the Ivy

There were readings from students and Senior Team, and the staff choir performed a superb rendition of In The Stillness by Sally Beamish and Katrina Shepherd.

The Chapel was lit up beautifully and it was lovely that we were joined by both parents and ORs for the one of the services, many of whom commented on how amazing the service was. Following the service, we moved to the Blyth which was the perfect opportunity for everyone to catch up over mulled wine and delicious mince pies - and buy tickets for the Parents' Guild Raffle.
